Add to ORKGObjectives - To investigate whether infectious events around birth and during early infancy are likely to be of relevance in MS pathogenesis. Subjects and methods - Data are available from two regions in The Netherlands: Groningen (n = 320) and Rotterdam (n = 226). Simultaneous clustering in birth date and birth location of MS cases is tested by the methods of Mantel, Knox and Jacquez. Results - No evidence was found for a space-time interaction between place and time of birth. Conclusion - Perinatal infectious events are unlikely to be a major factor in determining MS susceptibility. (C) Munksgaard 1998
