Multiple sclerosis: environmental risk factors

Abstract

The author represented materials on incidence of progressive muscular distrophy in the region of Tver. 168 patients were investigated with different forms of disease. The most frequent form of disease was Erb’s athophy (in 60%); incidence of Duchenne’s and Landuzy’s forms was the same (in 20%). Compared with the Russia’s indices of incidence, significant prevailing of this pathology in the region of Tver was revealed.
