Summary: A randomized controlled trial (RCT). To evaluate the efficacy of SNM for patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) having refractory neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (nLUTD). After a two-step procedure patients (n=60) with more than 50% improvement in the key bladder diary variables will be randomized after implantation of pulse generator (IPG) for sacral neuromodulation, ON or OFF, for four...
Summary: This study will evaluate the evolution of leptomeningeal lesions via leptomeningeal contrast enhancement (LMCE) presence/disappearance after treatment administration in patients with active progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). In addition, this study will investigate if the presence of leptomeningeal inflammation is associated with alterations of B cell repertoire and whether therapy with ocrelizu...
Summary: This pilot study takes the innovative approach of using ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) nanoparticle enhanced MRI to measure activity of the innate immune system within MS lesions. Activity of innate immunity has been hypothesized as one of the critical pathologic processes underpinning neurologic worsening in progressive MS. As such, in the short term this project proposes to inve...
Summary: Background:~Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that has no cure. MRI is the main tool used in the study and treatment of people with MS. A tracer has been developed for cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), an enzyme found in the brain during inflammation. Researchers want to explore the role inflammation plays in MS and see if COX-2 is measurable in the brains of people with the disease.~Object...
Summary: To evaluate whether an entire-body positron emission tomography (PET) scanner can be exploited to improve evaluation, monitoring and measurement of both peripheral and central demyelination in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients.
Summary: In this studly, the effects of an 12-week aerobic exercise training in persons with multiple sclerosis with restless legs syndrome will be investigated.
Summary: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that causes cognitive and motor disabilities and contributes to decrease patients life quality. Previous results described that there are some MS patients that showed (at least in some phases of the disease) neuroplasticity processes that are able to compensate some cognitive deficits. Moreover, neuroplasticity processes seem to be limited and relat...
Summary: The researchers will use technology-assisted ambulatory assessment techniques to examine cognitive dysfunction in people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).~The researchers will determine if ambulatory assessments are sensitive to subtle declines in cognitive functioning. They will also explore the impact of modifiable factors, such as sleep, physical activity, mood, and somatic symptoms on cognitive fu...
Summary: This is a multi-center, observational study carried out in Switzerland that aims to describe the effects of Ofatumumab in a setting of routine medical care.
Summary: The investigators want to evaluate gynecological follow-up concerning patients with multiple sclerosis. This study will include reproductive women (from 18 to 40 years old). Patients in the study have an aftercare at the neurology department at Pellegrin Hospital (Bordeaux).
Summary: This is an observational, non-interventional, multicenter, open-label study in patients being treated with any approved injectable Disease-modifying Therapy (DMT) for Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis in Germany. Prospective, primary data will be collected via questionnaires and an electronic case report form (eCRF) over a period of up to approx. two years of treatment. Additionally, medical history of...
Summary: The main objective of the study is to investigate the effect of exposure to a virtual reality session during botulinum toxin injections on injection-induced stress.~The secondary objectives are to study the effect of exposure to a virtual reality session during botulinum toxin injections, on the pain induced by the injection. And study the evolution of the effects of virtual reality with the repet...
