The idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating disease (IIDD) spectrum has been investigated among different populations, and the results have indicated a low relative frequency of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) multiple sclerosis (MS) cases in whites (1.2%-1.5%), increasing Mestizos (8%) Africans (15.4%-27.5%) living areas MS prevalence. South America (SA) was colonized by Europeans from Iberian Peninsula, their miscegenation with natives slaves resulted significant racial mixing. current study...
Little information is available regarding the incidence and clinical outcome of SARS-CoV2 infection in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS).To determine incidence, outcome, impact COVID-19 on pwMS.This observational study was prospectively performed a cohort pwMS (N = 11,560) followed up by 47 out 51 Brazilian MS referral centers that registered at REDONE platform from 13 March to 4 June 2020.The for 27.7/10,000 general population 29.2/10,000 inhabitants.
