Term:
percentage of study population displaying relapsing-remitting experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis at a point in time
The number of individuals in a study population which display relapsing-remitting experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (R-EAE) at a certain point in time compared to the total number of individuals in the study population, expressed as a percentage. R-EAE is an animal model of brain inflammation in which inflammation is induced through immunization of the animal with central nervous system antigens or by the passive transfer of autoreactive T cells where such induction results in a disease characterized by repeated symptomatic attacks followed by complete or almost complete improvement.
