The Phenotypes of Multiple Sclerosis Differ Significantly in Relative and Excess Mortality
Compared with the matched population, the adjusted relative and excess mortalities are the same for PPMS and ROMS. However, SPMS had a higher relative and excess mortality than PPMS, probably in part owing to the burden of disease carried over from the pre-progressive phase. This underlines the need for effective treatment in this later stage of the disease and more attention to comorbidity.
