   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; gene; inheritance; age standardiation; prevalence; THR; Hip; OA; traumatologi; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatology; orthopaedics;

   Abstract : Hereditary factors are suggested to contribute to osteoarthritis (OA), but their relative importance is uncertain. Moreover, the underlying specific variations at the genome level remain unknown.

7. 5. Inheritance of autoimmune neuroinflammation

   Author : Pernilla Stridh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neuro-inflammatory disease with anticipated complex etiology. Susceptibility to MS is conferred by numerous genes, with very low odds ratios that explain minute fractions of disease. This indicates that unknown factors are responsible for the remaining genetic contribution, termed the missing heritability. READ MORE
