| Summary: | Aim. To study the incidence and prevalence of multiple sclerosis risk factors in Russian Federation from 2009 to 2019.Materials and Methods. We used official records of Ministry of Health of Russian Federation and conducted a survey of 50 patients with multiple sclerosis (16 men and 34 women) admitted to the Sechenov University Clinic of Neurological Disorders to determine subjective risk factors.Results. Current incidence of multiple sclerosis in Russian Federation is 3.8 per 100,000 population, with a steady increase from 2009 to 2019. The highest and the lowest incidence values were registered in the Central Federal District (4.5 per 100,000 population) and Far Eastern Federal District (2.0 per 100,000 population). The most common subjective risk factors were female gender, past medical history of viral diseases, chronic bacterial infections, and emotional stress.Conclusion. Incidence of multiple sclerosis in Russian Federation is currently rising that highlights the need in the improved therapeutic protocols. |
