Abstract
A study was performed to examine association between polymorphisms of the apolipoprotein E gene, and of the cannabinoid receptor 1 gene and neuropsychological impairment in multiple sclerosis. A relationship was seen between an exonic polymorphism of the cannabinoid receptor and neuropsychological impairment which withstood correction for multiple ssting. The strongest factor determining neuropsychological impairment was assessment of premorbid intellectual function.
