Organic solvents exposure has for a long time been suspected as a risk factor for developing multiple sclerosis. The evidence, containing case reports, case-control studies and cohort studies has been contradictory. An early meta-analysis, however, pointed to a doubled risk for MS. Recent major case-control studies confirm this, but also have elucidated the risk pattern, being dependent on another risk factor, i.e. smoking.
