Adjusted Cox models were used to test the association between scores of 3 and 6 on the expanded disability status scale (EDSS) and the "origin/generation" variable.Cox models for EDSS scores 3 and 6 showed a higher risk of score 3 (hazard ratio = 1.738, 95% confidence interval 1.237 to 2.444; P = .002) and 6 (hazard ratio = 2.372, 95% confidence interval 1.626 to 3.462; P |
