The community based study was carried out in central part of the island Sardinia, Barbagia, area where high frequency of multiple sclerosis was found in the last 30 years. The results indicate that there is a high risk of the disease associated with HLA-DR4. This peculiar association stresses the hypothesis of different genetic risk of multiple sclerosis in the Sardinian population.
