Filter by:The aim of this monocentric randomized controlled intervention study is to improve visual function in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) following optic neuritis (neuritis nervi optici, NNO) by means of a light stimulation. In the treatment arm, two 80-second light stimulations are to be administered daily for 12 days in 25 pwMS following recent NNO (1-3 months). For the standardized application of light stimulation in the sense of standardized training, the light stimulation is to be carried out by watching a generated flicker video on a mobile phone. In a sham-intervened control group (n=25), the spontaneous course after NNO will be recorded in parallel. Intensive neuronal stimulation of the visual pathway will be used to stimulate regenerative processes, which will be recorded by means of changes in high-contrast visual acuity (primary endpoint). Secondary endpoints are changes in a colored-contrast test, in 2.5% low contrast visual acuity (LCVA), the P100 conduction latency of visual evoked potentials, and retinal layer thicknesses and vessel densities measured in optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). These physiological parameters should help to understand the underlying processes of a potentially altered visual performance.
This parallel-group randomized controlled trial aims to determine if the location of the lesion(s) in the vestibular system (unilateral versus bilateral, lateral semi-circular canal versus otolith) impacts the effectiveness of adjunct take-home head-mounted display (HMD) virtual reality (VR) therapy in improving patient symptomatology. Fifty patients meeting inclusion criteria will be recruited from the principal investigator's neurotology clinic. Baseline symptomatology questionnaires will be completed, followed by random allocation to virtual reality and control groups. Vestibular rehabilitation and virtual reality protocols will be adhered to for 4 to 8 weeks, followed by symptomatology questionnaires. Data analysis will be conducted to answer the study's objectives.
Using a technique called adaptive optics imaging applied on retina, investigators aim to gain access to vascular changes that could occur early in the course of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and which could reflect vascular changes occurring along the optic nerve of the brain parenchyma. Indeed, our team has been able to develop a quantitative method to measure the perivascular infiltrate in the retina of patients with various inflammatory retinal disease. It has been observed in MS patients that this perivascular infiltrate can also be detected in the retina. However, its distribution across MS phenotypes (relapsing or progressive MS, with and without optic neuritis) is still unknown.
