Abstract excerpt
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex chronic neurodegenerative disorder resulting from an autoimmune reaction against myelin. So far, many genetic variants have been reported to associate with MS risk however their association is inconsistent across different populations. Here we investigated the association of the most consistently reported genetic MS risk variants in the Kuwaiti MS population in a case-control...
