Backcalculation of Multiple Sclerosis Incidence Rates Based on Faroe Islands Data
To address the controversial hypothesis that multiple sclerosis is infectious, detailed analysis is performed on a data set from the Faroe Islands using the backcalculation technique developed in the study of HIV incidence. The method reconstructs an incidence intensity function. The influence of co...
