Figure 3From: Cerebrospinal fluid detection of interleukin-1β in phase of remission predicts disease progression in multiple sclerosis Interleukin 1β influences disease progression in relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis. (A) Progression index (PI) and (B) Multiple Sclerosis Severity Scale (MSSS) scores were higher among participants with detectable interleukin 1β (IL-1β) in the cerebrospinal fluid. Disability progression, measured as a sustained change in score on the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) (C) or Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) (D), was higher among participants with detectable IL-1β. *P < 0.05.Back to article page
