Cognitive impairment is common in multiple sclerosis (MS) but its manifestation as acute disease activity underappreciated.The aim of this study to examine recovery after MS relapse on tests cognitive and motor function explore correlates change with Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), reserve.Fifty relapsing group (RG) matched stable participants were examined at baseline, during relapse, 3-month follow-up. Tests processing speed (Symbol Digit...

Background: To determine the effect of disease-modifying therapies (DMT) on humoral postvaccine seroconversion, long-term response, and breakthrough COVID-19 infections in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) other neuroinflammatory disorders. Methods: A total 757 PwMS disorders were recruited two MS centers vaccinated one FDA-approved vaccines (BNT162b2, mRNA-1273, Ad26.COV2.S). The primary outcomes are rate seroconversion anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2...

Persons with neuroinflammatory diseases (pwNID) treated potent immunosuppressives are at risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes and reduced vaccine seroconversion. We aimed determining the real-world efficacy tixagevimab cilgavimab (Evusheld™) in immunosuppressed pwNID preventing breakthrough infections.31 were followed for 6 months after administration as a prophylactic medication (January 2022-July 2022). Only anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies sphingosine-1-phosphate modulators considered eligible...

Abstract Objective Baseline paramagnetic rim lesion (PRL) load predicts disease progression in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Understanding how PRLs relate to other known MS‐related factors, and the practical utility of clinical trials, is crucial for informing decision‐making guiding development novel disease‐modifying treatments (DMTs). Methods This study included 152 pwMS enrolled a larger prospective, longitudinal cohort who had 3T MRI scans assessments at baseline 5‐ or 10‐year...

<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> It is unknown whether deceleration of brain atrophy associated with disability improvement in patients MS. Our aim was to investigate MS develop less compared those who progress or remain stable. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> We followed 980 for a mean 4.8 ± 2.4 years. Subjects were divided into 3 groups: (<i>n</i> = 241, 24.6%), 101, 10.3%), and stable 638, 65.1%) at follow-up. Disability defined on the basis Expanded Status Scale score change using...

Disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) can alter multiple sclerosis (MS) disease course. Peak prevalence age for people with MS (pwMS) has increased, but little is known about clinical course or DMT response in older pwMS. The objective of this retrospective analysis a US administrative claims database to was evaluate course, use, healthcare utilisation, and time relapse during follow-up, pwMS ≥50 years active disease. Inclusion criteria were ≥3 years' continuous enrolment, ≥1 (index event),...

Objective: To describe the clinical outcome of four MS patients who developed PML while on natalizumab treated with CDV or CMX001. Background: Progressive-multifocal encephalopathy (PML) is a viral brain infection caused by JC polyomavirus (JCV) which often fatal. Case reports beneficial outcomes in treatment cidofovir combined mirtazapine some immunocompromised patients, but to date, no publications for associated multiple sclerosis (MS) therapy such as natalizumab.
