Psychological Stress as Risk Factor for Exacerbations in Multiple Sclerosis
Neurol 43:1311-1312, Nisipeanu,P.&Korczyn,A.D., 1993
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
We prospectively evaluated the relationship between a common psychological stressor and relapses in multiple sclerosis(MS)in a group of 32 MD patients exposed to the threat of missile attacks during the Persian Gulf War of 1991.The number of relapses during the war and the following 2 months was significantly lower than expected based on the frequency during the preceding 2 years,suggesting that not all stress conditions increase the risk of exacerbations in MS.
