Purpose Persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) are often confused by contradictory dietary advice. The purpose of this research was to explore the information needs and design a comprehensive, evidence-based nutritional resource on diet MS (NUTRIMS).
A multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis urges decision-making on immunotherapies, while persons with MS (PwMS) need to develop a coping concept in parallel. At this stage, PwMS ask how they themselves may contribute controlling the disease. Evidence suggests that maintaining healthy lifestyle (e.g. physical activity and stress management) is key factor for aging preserving activity, data are complex.Following Medical Research Council framework, study aimed investigate feasibility of new digital...
Abstract Background Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory neurodegenerative disease with diverse symptomatology, significantly impacting patients’ quality of life (QoL). While pharmacological therapies focus primarily on reducing inflammation and relapse rates, non-pharmacological interventions, including digital health applications, have shown promise in improving QoL among persons MS (PwMS). Pilot studies had the feasibility acceptability levidex , application based cognitive...
Background Health behaviors in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) have been associated MS-related disease outcomes. Objective The aim of the study was to gain knowledge about current patient health a convenience sample representative for pwMS presenting large university-based outpatient clinic and investigate associations between modifiable risk factors physical impairment, quality life (QoL) cardiovascular comorbidities. Methods A questionnaire administered at MS Outpatient Clinic...
Many persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) desire to learn how health behaviour changes (e.g., dietary adjustments, physical activity, improvements in stress management) might help them manage their disease. Previous research has shown that certain can improve quality of life (QoL), fatigue and other MS outcomes. Digital applications may be well suited deliver relevant behavioural interventions because accessibility flexibility. The digital application "levidex" was designed facilitate...
Introduction Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system that mainly affects young adults. Uncertainty a major psychological burden from diagnosis to prognosis, enhanced by pressure make early decisions on diverse set immunotherapies. Watchful waiting for 1–2 years while adapting goals lifestyle habits life with chronic represents another reasonable option persons MS (PwMS). A behaviour change programme based evidence-based patient...
Background Despite the evidence of beneficial effects physical activity (PA), people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) are less physically active than general population. To increase PA in pwMS, we developed a structured individually tailored promotion program which is conducted within clinical practice university-based outpatient clinic since 2016. This study serves as retrospective quality control this program. Objective In cohort study, assessed fitness pwMS and impact on short- long-term...
