Insights into the interplay between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and multiple sclerosis (MS): A state-of-the-art review and implications for vaccine development.

Background And Aims: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS). MS results from an inflammatory process leading to the loss of neural tissue and increased disability over time. The role of Epstein Barr Virus (EBV), as one of the most common global viruses, in MS development has been the subject of several studies.

The role of coenzyme Q10 as a preventive and therapeutic agent for the treatment of cancers.

Currently, several options are available for the prevention and treatment of cancers; however, many limitations remain with these approaches. Recently, antioxidants have become important preventive and therapeutic alternatives with few adverse events and minimum cost. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring component that performs an anticancer function by reducing oxidative stress.

Multiple sclerosis and the incidence of venous thromboembolism: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

A number of studies have suggested that multiple sclerosis (MS) can be associated with serious vascular complications, for which pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is a potentially lethal complication. The purpose of this study is to establish a current literature-based estimate of the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and PTE in patients with MS (pwMS) due to the lack of systematic reviews and meta-analyses on this topic. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, studies were assessed regarding the association between MS and the incidence of VTE.

Neurosarcoidosis in an adult man with a family history of MS: A case report.

Key Clinical Message: According to this report, a biopsy revealed a diagnosis of neurosarcoidosis in a patient with a history of MS. The development of the disease can be slowed down by early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Abstract: Neurosarcoidosis is a rare type of sarcoidosis that affects the central nervous system (CNS).
