Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis and Human Herpesvirus 6 Active Infection

Abstract

The results show that a subset of patients with RRMS experience HHV-6 active infection, and there likely is an association between the viral active replication and relapses; therefore, HHV-6 active infection may imply a greater risk of exacerbations in a subgroup of patients with RRMS.
