Résumé

Determining whether multiple sclerosis (MS) causes death is challenging. Our objective was to contrast two frameworks to estimate probabilities of death attributed to MS (P) and to other causes (P): the cause-specific framework (CSF) which requires the causes of death and the excess mortality framework (EMF) which does not.
