TL;DR: It is determined that Epstein-Barr virus infection greatly increased the risk of subsequent multiple sclerosis and that it preceded the development of disease, supporting its potential role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum Neurofilament Light Chain Levels in Patients With Presymptomatic Multiple Sclerosis.

TL;DR: The levels of sNfL were increased 6 years before the clinical onset of multiple sclerosis, indicating that MS may have a prodromal phase lasting several years and that neuroaxonal damage occurs already during this phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: To prospectively investigate potential signs of preclinical multiple sclerosis activity and when they are present prior to first symptom using data from a historical cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI
Timing of use of cod liver oil, a vitamin D source, and multiple sclerosis risk: The EnvIMS study
Marianna Cortese,Trond Riise,Kjetil Bjornevik,Trygve Holmøy,Margitta T. Kampman,Sandra Magalhaes,Maura Pugliatti,Christina Wolfson,Kjell-Morten Myhr +8 more
TL;DR: The findings not only support the hypothesis relating to low vitamin D as a risk factor for MS, but further point to adolescence as an important susceptibility period for adult-onset MS.
Journal ArticleDOI
No association between dietary sodium intake and the risk of multiple sclerosis
TL;DR: The findings suggest that higher dietary sodium intake does not increase the risk of developing multiple sclerosis.
