Biochemical findings in multiple sclerosis. II. A detailed study of the serum IgA, IgG and IgM levels of 772 MS patients compared with 226 neurological controls
Abstract
In the second paper of this series, a detailed study of the three main serum immunoglobulins for a group of 772 MS patients is compared with a group of 226 neurological controls. The results are studied according to sex and different age groups. Except for a slight elevation of the IGM levels in the MS group, especially between 40 and 60 years, no clear cut distinction between the two groups of patients was found.
