Article Synopsis
- * Conducted over eight years (2015-2023) using data from a French MS registry, researchers categorized relapses based on MRI results to better understand their impact.
- * Findings indicate that certain factors, like treatment type and fatigue, increase the likelihood of clinically defined relapses without MRI evidence, suggesting a need for revised monitoring and treatment strategies for MS patients.
Kappa Free Light Chain Index Predicts Disease Course in Clinically and Radiologically Isolated Syndromes.

Background And Objectives: To evaluate whether the kappa free light chain index (K-index) can predict the occurrence of new T2-weighted MRI lesions (T2L) and clinical events in clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) and radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS).
Methods: All consecutive patients presenting for the diagnostic workup, including CSF analysis, of clinical and/or MRI suspicion of multiple sclerosis (MS) since May 1, 2018, were evaluated. All patients diagnosed with CIS and RIS with at least 1-year follow-up were included.
Purpose: To report the progression of patients diagnosed with birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR) initially treated with corticosteroids.
Methods: We included 39 BSCR patients that were followed for ≥1 year. We analyzed their progression under treatment after 1, 3, 6 months, 1 year, and at the end of follow-up.
Objectives: Identification of sarcopenia is a key issue in oncology. Several methods may be used to evaluate muscle mass in patients. Routine cancer follow-up computed tomography (CT) provides axial muscle mass whereas whole-body densitometry (DEXA) measures appendicular lean mass (ALM).
