Slightly lower relapse incidence was found among patients treated with glatiramer acetate or subcutaneous interferon β-1a relative to intramuscular interferon β-1a and interferon β-1b (p≤0.001). No differences in 12-month confirmed progression of disability were observed. Conclusion: Small but statistically significant differences in relapse outcomes exist among the injectable immunomodulators. MSBase is sufficiently powered to identify these differences and reflects practice in tertiary MS centres. While the present study controlled indication, selection and attrition bias, centre-dependent variance in data quality was likely.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:02:06 AEDT ]]> Seasonal variation of relapse rate in multiple sclerosis is latitude dependent https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19821 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:56:56 AEDT ]]>
