Lifestyle and Environmental Factors in Multiple Sclerosis.

Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in medicine - 1 Apr 2019

Alfredsson Lars, Olsson Tomas

Abstract excerpt

Lifestyle and environmental factors potently influence the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS), because genetic predisposition only explains a fraction of the risk increase. There is strong evidence for associations of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, smoking, sun exposure/vitamin D, and adolescent obesity to risk of MS. There is also circumstantial evidence on organic solvents and shift work, all associate with...
