SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Multiple Sclerosis: Results of the Spanish Neurology Society Registry.

Objective: To understand COVID-19 characteristics in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and identify high-risk individuals due to their immunocompromised state resulting from the use of disease-modifying treatments.

Methods: Retrospective and multicenter registry in patients with MS with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis and available disease course (mild = ambulatory; severe = hospitalization; and critical = intensive care unit/death). Cases were analyzed for associations between MS characteristics and COVID-19 course and for identifying risk factors for a fatal outcome.

Remote Intracerebral Hemorrhage After Intravenous Thrombolysis: Results From a Multicenter Study.

Background And Purpose: Remote parenchymal hemorrhage (rPH) after intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator may be associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy, although supportive data are limited. We aimed to investigate risk factors of rPH after intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator.

Methods: This is an observational study of patients with ischemic stroke who were treated with intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator and were included in a multicenter prospective registry.
