“Epidemiological data suggest that EBV is a condicio sine qua non for the development of MS, but it is not sufficient on its own.”

Many of you have asked me about the role of EBV infection in the pathogenesis of MS over the past few years. I’m sure you recall my blurb about EBV being a necessary cofactor in the development of MS — part of a perfect storm that includes multiple “hits” in both genetics and environment.

Check out this new data from the Universities of Zurich and Basel in Switzerland! 🇨🇭 🧠 🧡

Be Well,
Dr. Filippakis

MS arises from an interplay between environmental factors and genetic susceptibility. What is the role of EBV infection in MS?

Hot off the JAMA Neurology press!

Question: What is the US burden of disorders affecting the nervous system?

Findings: This cross-sectional study of the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study data found that, among the US population of 332.7 million, disorders affecting nervous system health impacted 180.3 million US individuals and were the top cause of disability, with 16.6 million disability-adjusted life-years. Conditions with the greatest collective disability were stroke, Alzheimer disease and other dementias, diabetic neuropathy, and migraine.

Meaning: Given the high prevalence of disorders affecting the nervous system, the United States should prioritize efforts to combat these conditions with new prevention strategies, therapeutics, and focused rehabilitation.
