Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene ε4, 2 alleles have been reported to be associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), but results were conflicting. In order to derive a more precise estimation of the associations, a meta-analysis was performed. METHODS: The PubMed, EBSCO and BIOSIS databases were searched to identify eligible studies published in English before March, 2011. Data were extracted using...
