摘要

One of the most widely accepted epidemiological features of multiple sclerosis (MS) is its tendency to increase as latitude increases, in both directions from the equator. The worldwide distribution of MS may be an indirect reflection of some cause which varies by latitude, the most obvious environmental factor being climate. The possible role of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in MS etiology was first proposed in 1960 and has recently received increasing attention. This issue of the Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences includes a paper by Sloka et al which correlates MS prevalence and UVR globally, along with latitude and other factors that might contribute to the geographic distribution of MS. While this study furthers our understanding of the relative bearing which UVR may have on MS distribution, it also highlights some of the difficulties inherent in examining UVR's impact.
