Within the limits of the retrospective design of the study,our findings suggest that genetic factors other than the known CJD mutations may play an important part in CJD.Iatrogenic transmission of diseases seems rare in this large population-based sample of patients with CJD.There is little evidence for an association between the risk of CJD and either animal exposure,or consumption of processed bovine meat or milk products for the period studied. |
