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...
The present study focused on human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DQB1, DQA1 and DRB1 allelic variation according to ethnicity analyzed whether susceptibility multiple sclerosis (MS) depends population characteristics.
Recent studies have suggested faster clinical progression and greater disability in multiple sclerosis patients of African descent. This study analysed the effect ethnicity on disability. Sixty-five with primary progressive were selected classified as being descent or white. Time from onset disease until reaching Expanded Disability Status Scale grades 3, 6, 8 was assessed, well irreversible (Expanded grade maintained for ≥6 months). In group, median time to reach 3 1 year shorter (1 vs 2...
The anti-aquaporin4 (anti-AQP4) antibody is specific for neuromyelitis optica (NMO), but also found in limited forms. presence of this acute transverse myelitis (ATM) has been associated with recurrence and conversion to NMO, the influence on disability not yet described.To describe frequency anti-AQP4 ATM analyze long-term prognosis.Cross-sectional retrospective study.Consecutive cases a multiple sclerosis center Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 2000 through 2009 were reviewed. Recurrent tested...
