Joinpoint Regression Analysis of Trends in Multiple Sclerosis Incidence in Kuwait: 1980 –2019

Conclusions: From 1980 to 2010, Kuwait has an overall significantly increasing trend in MS ASIRs followed by a nonsignificant declining drift in the ensuing period. The increasing trend in MS risk appeared to be driven by increased risk among Kuwaiti females younger than 40 years. The underlying factors modulating MS risk in Kuwait need further studies.Neuroepidemiology
