MAD median absolute deviation, TERI Teriflunomide, FTY Fingolimod, NA Natalizumab, IF Interferon-ß1, Second-line DMT to be employed by label of the European Medical Agency if previous DMT failed to achieve sufficient control of disease activity.
a Ranked according to the magnitude of the median of the corresponding coefficient’s posterior distribution
b A positive sign is associated with a boosting effect on the likelihood of observing a CDP; a negative sign is associated with a lessening effect on the likelihood of observing a CDP
