Physical and social environment and the risk of multiple sclerosis
Conclusions Our study did not reveal any additional factors beyond the previously published childbirths which could explain the extent of the MS incidence increase in women.

Relationship between muscle strength parameters and functional capacity in persons with mild to moderate degree multiple sclerosis
Conclusions Maximal muscle strength of the weaker leg is the better predictor of walking performance in persons with mild to moderate multiple sclerosis. RFD, although also important for functional capacity, is a less strong predictor. Maximal strength of the knee extensors, rather than the knee flexors, predicted performance in the stairclimb and 5STS tests.

Should a psychotic or manic episode be considered an early manifestation of multiple sclerosis? a multiple case study
Conclusion Based on this multiple case study, we question whether past psychotic or manic episode should be considered equivalent to a first manifestation of MS.

Hypothesis: Multiple Sclerosis is caused by three-hits, strictly in order, in genetically susceptible persons
Publication date: Available online 4 July 2018Source: Multiple Sclerosis and Related DisordersAuthor(s): Patrick K A Kearns, Helen A Casey, John Paul LeachAbstractMultiple Sclerosis is a chronic, progressive and debilitating neurological disease which, despite extensive study for over 100 years, remains of enigmatic aetiology. Drawn from the epidemiological evidence, there exists a consensus that there are environmental (possibly infectious) factors that contribute to disease pathogenesis that have not yet been fully elucidated. Here we propose a three-tiered hypothesis: 1) a clinic-epidemiological model of multiple sclero...

Effect of Vitamin D Replacement on Depression in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
ConclusionLower vitamin D levels are associated with higher depressive scores, and vitamin D replacement could improve depressive symptoms in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis.

Multiple Sclerosis Hands
I was going to title this post “MS Spills” but I realize that when multiple sclerosis affects the hands it’s more than just spills which can be an issue. A hot cup of coffee in my MS hands should be considered a weapon of mass destruction! Between wonky gait, tremors in my arms, when I’m trying to hold something, or if I’ve lost feeling all together, point A to point B seems to be a few laps around the alphabet. That my left side is weaker than my right — thus my right hand holds my cane or my forearm crutch — lends an air of obstacle course to many of my household excursions. I can sometimes have gre...

Functional connectivity changes and their relationship with clinical disability and white matter integrity in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis
Conclusions: Despite the within-network functional connectivity decrease and the widespread microstructural damage, the inter-network functional connectivity changes suggest a global brain functional rearrangement in multiple sclerosis. The correlation between functional connectivity alterations and callosal damage uncovers a link between functional and structural connectivity. Finally, functional connectivity abnormalities affect information processing speed rather than motor abilities.

Brain intra- and extracellular sodium concentration in multiple sclerosis: a 7 T MRI study
Intra-axonal accumulation of sodium ions is one of the key mechanisms of delayed neuro-axonal degeneration that contributes to disability accrual in multiple sclerosis. In vivo sodium magnetic resonance imaging studies have demonstrated an increase of brain total sodium concentration in patients with multiple sclerosis, especially in patients with greater disability. However, total sodium concentration is a weighted average of intra- and extra-cellular sodium concentration whose changes reflect different tissue pathophysiological processes. The in vivo, non-invasive measurement of intracellular sodium concentration is quit...

Comparing epidemiology and baseline characteristic of multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica: A case-control study
Conclusion The results of this study reveal that the risk of MS is significantly higher in female and younger people in comparison to NMO. Having positive family history of MS can increase the risk of MS substantially. The findings of the study indicated that factors that predict susceptibility to MS, including a positive history of MS in relatives, do not appear to have any association with NMO.

Multiple sclerosis showing elevation of adenosine deaminase levels in the cerebrospinal fluid
Publication date: Available online 6 February 2017 Source:Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders Author(s): Miharu Samuraki, Kenji Sakai, Yasuko Odake, Mitsuhiro Yoshita, Kouichi Misaki, Mitsutoshi Nakata, Masahito Yamada An 80-year-old man developed dysarthria, quadriplegia, sensory disturbance and ataxia in all limbs. Brain and spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple enhanced lesions. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of adenosine deaminase (ADA) remarkably elevated. Tuberculosis DNA was not detected, and tuberculosis was not cultured either in the CSF. Brain biopsy revealed the inflammatory demyelina...
