To characterize patients misdiagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS).Neurologists at 4 academic MS centers submitted data on determined to have been MS.Of 110 patients, 51 (46%) were classified as "definite" and 59 (54%) "probable" misdiagnoses according study definitions. Alternate diagnoses included migraine alone or in combination other 24 (22%), fibromyalgia 16 (15%), nonspecific nonlocalizing neurologic symptoms abnormal MRI 13 (12%), conversion psychogenic disorders 12 (11%),...
Balance problems and falls are common in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) but their cause nature not well understood. It is known that MS affects many areas of the central nervous system can impact postural responses to maintain balance, including cerebellum spinal cord. Cerebellar balance disorders associated normal latencies reduced scaling responses. We therefore examined latency automatic responses, relationship somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs), ten imbalance age-, sex-matched,...
The role that dietary interventions can play in multiple sclerosis (MS) management is of huge interest amongst patients and researchers but data evaluating this limited. Possible effects a very-low-fat, plant-based intervention on MS related progression disease activity as measured by brain imaging symptoms have not been evaluated randomized-controlled trial. Despite use modifying therapies (DMT), poor quality life (QOL) be significant problem with fatigue being one the common disabling...
<h3>Objective:</h3> To determine whether lipoic acid (LA), an endogenously produced antioxidant, slowed the whole-brain atrophy rate and was safe in secondary progressive MS (SPMS). <h3>Methods:</h3> Patients with SPMS aged 40–70 years enrolled a single center, 2-year, double-blind, randomized trial of daily oral 1,200 mg LA vs placebo. Primary outcome change annualized percent brain volume (PCBV). Secondary outcomes were changes rates segmented brain, spinal cord, retinal substructures,...
Objective To compare the risk, circumstances, consequences and causes of prospectively recorded falls between people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) healthy controls similar age gender. Methods 58 PwMS controls, who are community-dwelling, were recruited in this 6-month prospective cohort study. 90% 84% completed Participants counted using fall calendars noted location, fall-related injuries, cause falls. Kaplan Meier survival analysis log-rank tests performed to distributions without falling...
Mobility and balance impairments are a hallmark of multiple sclerosis (MS), affecting nearly half patients at presentation resulting in decreased activity participation, falls, injuries, reduced quality life. A growing body work suggests that people with mild MS primarily the result deficits proprioception, ability to determine position space absence vision. better understanding pathophysiology disturbances is needed develop evidence-based rehabilitation approaches. The purpose current study...
Background. Many people with MS fall, but the best method for identifying those at increased fall risk is not known. Objective. To compare how accurately history, questionnaires, and physical tests predict future falls injurious in MS. Methods. 52 were asked if they had fallen past 2 months year. Subjects also assessed Activities-specific Balance Confidence, Falls Efficacy Scale-International, Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale-12 Expanded Disability Status Scale, Timed 25-Foot Walk,...
The purpose of this study was to estimate the relative risk an injurious fall requiring medical attention in veterans with multiple sclerosis (MS) compared without MS after controlling for sex, age, and healthcare use. sample included 195,417 treated at Veterans Health Administration (VHA) facilities Northwest United States fiscal year 2008. We obtained information regarding diagnosis, falls (operationalized as International Classifi cation Diseases-9th Revision-Clinical Modification codes...
