Burden of genetic risk variants in multiple sclerosis families in the Netherlands
Background Approximately 20% of multiple sclerosis patients have a family history of multiple sclerosis. Studies of multiple sclerosis aggregation in families are inconclusive. Objective To investigate the genetic burden based on currently discovered genetic variants for multiple sclerosis risk in patients from Dutch multiple sclerosis multiplex families versus sporadic multiple sclerosis cases, and to study its influence on clinical phenotype and disease prediction. Methods Our study population consisted of 283 sporadic multiple sclerosis cases, 169 probands from multiplex families and 2028 c... Mehr ...
