Abstract Details

Reproduction and the Risk of Multiple Sclerosis
MS and Related Diseases
IN8 - (-)
001
The incidence of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) in Denmark has doubled in women since 1970 and in the same period only a small increase in men was observed.
The cohort consisted of 1403 patients with probable/definite MS of both sexes, identified through the nationwide Danish Multiple Sclerosis Registry, with clinical onset between 2000 and 2004, aged 15-55 at onset. For each case, 25 control persons were drawn by random from the Danish Civil Registration System (CRS) matched by sex, year of birth and residential municipality by January 1st in the year of onset of the first demyelinating symptom of the corresponding MS-case.
More female cases than controls had no childbirths or fewer births before clinical onset (p=0.018) but only in the last five years preceding onset (p<0.0001). Childbirths within five years before clinical onset reduced the risk of MS onset in women OR=0.44 (95 % CI 0.31-0.61, p<0.001) for one child and OR= 0.71 (95 % CI 0.57-0.88, p=0.002) for more than one children. The risk of MS was not influenced by parity in men. Induced abortions within 5 years before clinical onset were more common in controls compared to cases OR=0.70 (95% CI 0.51-0.86, p=0.026). Parental age at first childbirth (in five-year age groups) had no effect on the risk of MS .In the five years before the year of clinical onset, the social behavior, in terms of broken partnerships and annual mean income, did not differ between cases and controls.
Considering the possibility of reversed causation, which was not supported, by the data, pregnancy could exert a certain protection against MS on a biological basis, lasting up to five years.
