Abstract

The differential diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis has been developed using data from North America, northern Europe, and Australasia, with a focus on White populations. People from minority ethnic and racial backgrounds in regions where prevalence of multiple sclerosis is high are more often negatively affected by social determinants of health, compared with White people in these regions. A better understanding of changing demographics, the clinical characteristics of people from minority ethnic or racial backgrounds, and the social challenges they face might facilitate equitable clinical approaches when considering a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Neuromyelitis optica, systemic lupus erythematous, neurosarcoidosis, infections, and cerebrovascular conditions (eg, hypertension) should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multiple sclerosis for people from minority ethnic and racial backgrounds in North America, northern Europe, and Australasia. The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in people from a minority ethnic or racial background in these regions requires a comprehensive approach that considers the complex interplay of immigration, diagnostic inequity, and social determinants of health.

疑似多发性硬化症的鉴别诊断:北美、北欧和澳大拉西亚少数民族和种族背景人群的考虑因素。
疑似多发性硬化症的鉴别诊断是根据北美、北欧和澳大拉西亚的数据制定的,重点是白人。在多发性硬化症发病率较高的地区,来自少数族裔和种族背景的人与这些地区的白人相比,更经常受到健康社会决定因素的负面影响。更好地了解人口结构的变化、少数民族或种族背景人群的临床特征以及他们所面临的社会挑战,可能有助于在考虑诊断多发性硬化症时采取公平的临床方法。在对北美、北欧和澳大拉西亚的少数族裔和种族背景的人进行多发性硬化症鉴别诊断时,应考虑神经性脊髓炎视网膜病变、系统性红斑狼疮、神经肉芽肿病、感染和脑血管疾病(如高血压)。诊断这些地区少数民族或种族背景人群的多发性硬化症需要采取综合方法,考虑到移民、诊断不公平和健康的社会决定因素之间复杂的相互作用。
