Filter by:Epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is currently regarded as one of the most promising intervention methods to improve motor function in individuals with severe spinal cord injury. In parallel, an increasing number of studies is suggesting that noninvasive SCS can improve spasticity and residual motor control in the same subject population. The present study explores whether single sessions of noninvasive SCS would improve walking performance and ameliorate spasticity in individuals with multiple sclerosis.
Urological dysfunction is common in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and its prevalence has been reported at a high rate of 32-97%. Bladder dysfunction is associated with a significant deterioration in the quality of life of people with MS. In chronic diseases such as MS, patients experiences need to be measured directly in order to have information about patients perceptions about the effect of the disease on quality of life. However, there are a small number of valid and reliable Turkish scales on this subject.SF-Qualiveen is a validated scale for patients with MS who assess the urinary-specific quality of life by examining the impact of a wide range of bladder problems.The aim of our study is to make the Turkish cultural adaptation, validity and reliability of the SF-Qualiveen scale.
The purpose of the study is to describe the safety profile of fingolimod in the Taiwanese multiple sclerosis population. This study aims to collect the safety data in patients newly initiated on fingolimod for one year.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase IIa clinical study, assessing safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic effects and pharmacokinetics of temelimab, administered at three different dose levels (18 mg/kg or 36 mg/kg or 54 mg/kg). In this study temelimab is administered subsequently to rituximab therapy, i.e. no co-administration of rituximab and temelimab is done in this study.
The primary goal of this research is to study the prevalence of the wearing-off effect and possible risk factors for wearing-off symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis using ocrelizumab with the use of questionnaires. Furthermore, the goal is to study whether patients receiving extended dosing of ocrelizumab experience more wearing-off symptoms or adverse events in general. Finally, we would like to extend knowledge on wearing-off symptoms in general.
The goal of our research is to find out how safe and effective the drugs used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS) are when used in the everyday, real world. To achieve these study goals, we have two main study Themes. The first Theme focuses on how effective the MS drugs are. We will examine whether the MS drugs can extend life expectancy or prolong a person's ability to stay mobile and walk. We will also look at whether the MS drugs have a beneficial effect on reducing the number of times a person with MS is admitted to a hospital or visits a physician. The second Theme focuses on side effects, including whether the MS drugs are associated with harmful effects, such as cancer, stroke or depression. We will be able to compare the different MS drugs to each other. Also, we will see if men and women or people of different ages and with other illnesses (such as having both MS and diabetes) respond to the MS drugs differently. Our findings will help people with MS and their physicians when trying to make decisions as to which MS drug might be best for them.
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and health related quality of life of Generic DMF (Sclera® or Marovarex ®, Hikma) in patients undergoing routine clinical care for RRMS in MENA Region
The goal is to investigate the effects of non-invasive transcranial electrical stimulation on cognition in MS.
Newly diagnosed relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) and high risk clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) patients will be treated with ocrelizumab at disease onset to see if treatment favorably alters CSF markers of chronic inflammation.
Many central nervous system pathologies have an inflammatory component, often associated with an accumulation of disability and more severe tissue damage. In multiple sclerosis, the inflammatory process is in part characterized by the activation of microglia, an entity of the innate inflammatory system, as well as a breakdown of the blood-brain barrier. During inflammation, activated microglia may contain high levels of iron, characterizing its activated state.
