Overview

This study aims to establish a link between urinary Sphingosine 1-Phosphate (S1P) levels and detrusor activity in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. MS often involves urological symptoms, primarily overactive bladder. The gold standard for evaluation and treatment monitoring is invasive urodynamic testing. Preliminary research at Toulouse University Hospital suggests urinary S1P levels may be a potential biomarker for detrusor activity in MS. This study aims to confirm this potential biomarker's utility.
