abstract = {Infection with human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) has been
suggested to increase multiple sclerosis (MS) risk. However,
potential interactions between HHV-6A and
environmental/lifestyle risk factors for MS have not
previously been studied.We used two Swedish population-based
case-control studies comprising 5993 cases and 5995
controls. Using logistic regression models, subjects with
different HHV-6A antibody levels, environmental exposures,
and lifestyle habits were compared regarding MS risk, by
calculating odds ratios (ORs) with $95\%$ confidence
intervals (CIs). Potential interactions between high HHV-6A
antibody levels and common environmental exposures and
lifestyle factors were evaluated on the additive scale.High
HHV-6A antibody levels were associated with increased risk
of developing MS (OR = 1.5, $95\%$ CI = 1.4-1.6). Regarding
MS risk, significant interactions were observed between high
HHV-6A antibody levels and both smoking (attributable
proportion (AP) = 0.2, $95\%$ CI = 0.1-0.3), low ultraviolet
radiation (UVR) exposure (AP = 0.3, $95\%$ CI = 0.1-0.4),
and low vitamin D levels (AP = 0.3, $95\%$ CI =
0.0-0.6).High HHV-6A antibody levels are associated with
increased MS risk and act synergistically with common
environmental/lifestyle risk factors for MS. Further
research is needed to investigate potential mechanisms
underlying the interactions presented in this study.},
