Phenome-wide examination of comorbidity burden and multiple sclerosis disease severity

Conclusion The phenome-wide approach enabled a systematic interrogation of the comorbidity burden and highlighted clinically relevant medical conditions associated with MS severity (beyond MS-specific consequences) and defines a roadmap for comprehensive investigation of comorbidities in chronic neurologic diseases. Further prospective investigation of the bidirectional relationship between disability and comorbidities could inform the individualized patient management.
