Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how pediatric MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) affects brain growth in children compared to healthy peers and those with MS or monophasic demyelination, highlighting the possible impact on brain maturation.* -
- Researchers included children diagnosed with MOGAD, MS, or monophasic demyelination from a longitudinal study and used brain MRI scans to analyze regional brain volumes against normative data from healthy children.* -
- Findings revealed that children with MOGAD show significant delays in expected brain growth, particularly in areas like the thalamus and caudate, indicating a deviation from typical brain development patterns.*
Long-term cognitive deficits have been observed in some children who experience an acquired demyelinating syndrome (ADS). We examined changes in cognitive functioning over the first two years following incident ADS andtested whether normalized brain and thalamic volume accounted for decline over time. Twenty-five youth (mean age 12.
