summary: It is known that advanced maternal or paternal age is associated with the appearance of different diseases in offspring, including chromosomal abnormalities and adult-onset disorders. In this paper the authors aimed to investigate whether a more advanced parental age was associated with a higher risk of MS in offspring. They found no association between parental age and the risk of MS.
