Figure 7Evaluation of disease course. The number of relapses during follow-up (
A) and the neurological disability at the end of the study (
B) were monitored in patients with and without LS-OCMBs. Comparisons were made by a Mann-Whitney

P = 0.0004) and became more disabled (
P = 0.02) than those without LS-OCMBs.
