Abstract
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) kappa free light chains (KFLC) have been suggested as quantitative alternative to oligoclonal bands (OB) in multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis. Despite OB have been associated to poor disease prognosis, little is known on KFLC in predicting MS early progression. Our aim is to evaluate the prognostic value of KFLC in a cohort of Italian MS patients.File in questo prodotto:
