Reflex Responses in Muscles of the Lower Extremities Elicited by Transcutaneous Stimulation of Cauda Equina: Part 1. Methodology and Normative Data.

Introduction: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation is used to stimulate the dorsal roots of the cauda equina. Multiple elicited responses recorded in the lower extremity muscles are called posterior root muscle reflexes (PRMRs). Normal PRMR values in the muscles of healthy lower extremities have yet to be determined.

Cladribine tablets in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis: A real-world multicentric study from southeast European MS centers.

Background: Cladribine is an oral disease-modifying drug authorized by the European Medicine Agency for the treatment of highly active relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS).

Objectives: To provide real-world evidence of cladribine's effectiveness and safety in people with MS (pwMS).

Methods: A retrospective observational multi-center, multi-national study of pwMS who were started on cladribine tablets in ten centers from five European countries.

Treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis - recommendations of the Croatian Neurological Society.

Untreated multiple sclerosis (MS) irretrievably leads to severe neurological impairment. In European health care systems, patient access to disease modifying therapies (DMT) is often confined to more advanced stages of the disease because of restrictions in reimbursement. A discrepancy in access to DMTs is evident between West and East European countries.

Aphasia in patients with ischemic stroke.

Aphasia in ischemic stroke patients is associated with increased mortality, decreased rates of functional recovery, and reduced work capability. The aim was to study the prevalence and characteristics of aphasia in ischemic stroke patients. This prospective, cohort study included 177 patients (94 male and 83 female) hospitalized for ischemic stroke at University Department of Neurology in Osijek in 2010.
