Brain volume loss is a key marker of degeneration in multiple sclerosis, correlated with future disability progression. Ponesimod, alemtuzumab, teriflunomide, ozanimod, and fingolimod significantly ...

"We plan to analyze these MRI structural measures longitudinally to determine if changes in brain volumes or lesion burden over time contribute to fatigue trajectories. More broadly, we might ...

In contrast to traditional measures, such as an increase or worsening of lesions or overall brain atrophy, to signal progression of multiple sclerosis (MS), investigators are proposing atrophied ...

Many people with multiple sclerosis struggle with balance and coordination, and this study uncovers a hidden reason why. Researchers found that inflammation in the brain disrupts the energy supply of ...
