本书包含与在日本京都举行的第12届世界神经病学大会同时举行的亚洲多发性硬化症研讨会的会议记录。它主要涉及亚洲和西方国家多发性硬化症(MS)之间的差异(和相似之处)。主要的区别是多发性硬化症在东方不太常见,倾向于更多地最初出现在视神经脊髓炎(Devic病)。后者被记录在印度和日本之间宽阔的弧线上的国家。在日本,流行病学研究不能再因为糟糕的医疗标准而打折扣,但还有另一个不同之处,因为没有发现与人类白细胞抗原相关的东西。也发现了相似之处:欧洲和美国的南北梯度显然也出现在日本。尽管贡献者的来源各不相同,但其风格是清晰的。事实上,西方贡献者的英语是最需要的
This book contains the proceedings of the Asia Multiple Sclerosis workshop held in conjunction with the 12th World Congress of Neurology in Kyoto, Japan. It is largely concerned with the differences (and similarities) between multiple sclerosis (MS) in Asiatic and Western countries. The chief differences are that MS is less common in the East and tends more to appear initially with neuromyelitis optica (Devic's disease). The latter is documented in countries in a wide arc between India and Japan. In Japan, where epidemiologic studies can no longer be discounted on grounds of poor medical standards, there is another difference, as no HLA antigen association has been found. Similarities have also been uncovered: the North-South gradient of Europe and the United States is apparently found also in Japan. Despite the varied origins of the contributors, the style is lucid. In fact, the English of the Western contributors stands most in need
