Abstract excerpt
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory disorder leading to chronic disability. Brain lesions in MS commonly arise in normal-appearing white matter (NAWM). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants associated with MS. Transcriptome alterations have been observed in case-control studies of NAWM. We developed a Cross-Dataset Evaluation (CDE) function for our network-based tool,...
