The incidence of HL—A3 among 94 patients with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) was significantly higher than for 871 normal persons. In addition, some increase in Te58 and decrease in HL—A2 and Te60 frequencies was noted. The well‐known higher incidence of MS among Caucasians than among Orientals is paralleled by the higher incidence of HL—A3 and Te58 among Caucasians and a lower incidence of Te60.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
