Neurophysiological methods for assessing and treating cognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis: A scoping review of the literature.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in exploring the non-classical symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS), with a particular focus on cognitive impairments associated with the disease's progression. These cognitive symptoms are now recognized as crucial elements in the assessment of disease activity. In this context, neurophysiology has emerged as a valuable and accessible tool for studying and addressing cognitive decline in individuals with MS.

Body Mass Index Profile of Adult Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in a Multicenter Study in Northeastern Brazil.

Purpose: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a disease of increasing prevalence in developing countries. Obesity has emerged as a potential risk for IBD; however, the data in the literature are conflicting, and relevant studies in Brazil are limited. Here, we report body mass index profile (BMI) of patients with IBD treated at reference centers in three states of northeastern Brazil.

A Multicentre Study of the Clinical and Epidemiological Profile of Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Northeast Brazil.

Purpose: Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) with multifactorial causes. They are becoming more prevalent in developing countries such as Brazil; however, relevant studies in poorer regions of the country are limited. Here, we report the clinical-epidemiological profile of patients with IBD treated at reference centers in three states of Northeast Brazil.

The presence of resistance-associated mutations in reverse transcriptase gene is associated with cerebrospinal fluid HIV-1 escape: A multicentric retrospective analysis.

Higher risk of cerebrospinal fluid escape (CVE) has been associated with the use of specific antiretroviral (ARV) classes, such as protease inhibitors. We assessed whether archived resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) can mediate this relationship by identifying patients treated with incompletely active antiretroviral regimens. A retrospective multicentric study on 282 adult people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and available historical plasma genotype resistance testing (HGRT) for reverse transcriptase (RT) and protease genes between 2001 and 2021.
