Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease primarily known for causing physical disability through damage to the central nervous system. However, beyond the physical symptoms, there is growing evidence that MS can lead to cognitive decline and, in some…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are both complex neurological disorders that affect the central nervous system, but they differ fundamentally in their causes, progression, and pathology. However, research over recent years has revealed intriguing links between the two,…
The role of **grey matter damage in multiple sclerosis (MS) progression** is central and increasingly recognized as a key factor driving the worsening of disability and cognitive decline in people with MS. Unlike the traditional focus on white matter lesions,…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) and brain atrophy are closely connected through the process of neurodegeneration that occurs as MS progresses. MS is a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the protective myelin sheath covering nerve fibers in the central…
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans play a crucial and evolving role in multiple sclerosis (MS) research by providing detailed molecular-level images of brain and nervous system activity that go beyond what traditional imaging methods can show. Unlike MRI, which primarily…
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays a **crucial role in detecting early Multiple Sclerosis (MS)** by revealing changes in the brain and spinal cord that are characteristic of the disease, often before symptoms become apparent. MS is a chronic autoimmune disorder…
Biomarkers play a crucial and increasingly central role in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), transforming how quickly and accurately this complex neurological disease can be identified. MS is a chronic condition characterized by damage to the central nervous system,…
The connection between multiple sclerosis (MS) and childhood vitamin D intake is a significant area of research that explores how early-life vitamin D levels might influence the risk of developing MS later in life. MS is a chronic autoimmune disease…
The role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) vaccines in preventing multiple sclerosis (MS) is an emerging and promising area of medical research, grounded in the strong evidence linking EBV infection to the development of MS. EBV is a common herpesvirus that…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers in the central nervous system, leading to communication problems between the brain and body. One intriguing area of research is how…
