Increased cytomegalovirus immune responses at disease onset are protective in the long-term prognosis of patients with multiple sclerosis
Conclusions
These results indicate that elevated immune responses against HCMV at disease onset have protective effects on long-term disability and inflammation disease outcomes. Our data also indicate that increased immune responses against EBV in early phases may influence long-term disease prognosis.
