Background The Greater Hobart region (42.5°S) of Tasmania has consistently had the highest recorded prevalence and incidence rates multiple sclerosis (MS) in Australia. We reassessed MS epidemiology 2009–2019 assessed longitudinal changes over 68 years. Methods Cases recruited from clinic-based datasets other data sources. 2019 annual mortality estimated, differences using Poisson regression. Results 436 cases resident on day were identified, 130 symptom onset within 2009–2019. Prevalence...

<h3>Objective</h3> To examine factors determining risk of self-reported infections and antimicrobial use in patients receiving Ocrelizumab for MS. <h3>Methods</h3> Retrospective, observational cohort study conducted Ocrelizumab-treated at the Royal Melbourne Hospital. The association clinical laboratory with infection rate were estimated using univariate multivariable logistic regression models. <h3>Results</h3> 185 included study, 176 reported 89 (46.1%), 47 (25.3%) was identified.
