Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to differentiate multiple sclerosis (MS) from glaucoma using nerve fiber layer (NFL) thinning patterns in the eye.
- Researchers analyzed NFL thickness in MS and glaucoma patients by measuring sector-specific reductions compared to normative values and created diagnostic indexes for evaluation.
- Results indicated that MS showed significant thinning in the temporal sectors, while glaucoma showed thinning in inferior and superior sectors, with a specific index achieving high accuracy in differentiating the two diseases.
Background: Fatigue can be a disabling multiple sclerosis (MS) symptom with no effective treatment options.
Objective: Determine whether a low-fat diet improves fatigue in people with MS (PwMS).
Methods: We conducted a 16-week randomized controlled trial (RCT) and allocated PwMS to a low-fat diet (active, total daily fat calories not exceeding 20%) or wait-list (control) group.
Background: Vascular comorbidity (VC) is associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) disease progression and visual dysfunction. The longitudinal effect of VC in people with secondary progressive MS (SPMS) is unclear. This study explored the impact of VC on standard clinical, MRI, and visual outcomes in people with SPMS enrolled in a clinical trial.
