Predicting Disease Activity and Rebound Risk in MS Patients Treated With Sphingosine-1-phosphate Receptor Modulators (S1PRM)
Sphingosine 1-Phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators (S1PRMs) are part of the evolving treatment landscape of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) immunotherapies. They target the G-protein coupled S1P receptor, among other localizations expressed at the surface of lymphocytes. Binding as a functional antagonist leads to internalization of the receptor and therefore lymphocyte sequestration in …
Pharmacogenomics of Drug Safety in Multiple Sclerosis
To investigate whether genotypic differences can be identified between MS patients developing 'liver injury' (defined as ALT levels five times the upper normal limit and above) compared to those not developing liver injury after exposure to beta-interferon for MS.
Evaluation of Muscle Oxidative Capacity Relationship With Muscular Endurance, Fatigue (Multiple Sclerosis).
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized by different progressive forms with periods of flare-ups interspersed with phases of remission. MS manifests clinically with signs of multiple neurological dysfunctions as well as less specific symptoms such as fatigue, the prevalence of …
Resting Postural Tremor in Multiple Sclerosis
Early diagnosis is a key factor for effective treatment of multiple sclerosis. Accelerometer and gyroscope measurement of tremor could screen potential motor control dysfunction and predict a risk for development of multiple sclerosis.
Effects of a Multiple Sclerosis Relapse Therapy on Offspring Neurocognitive Development and Behaviour
Introduction: Fetal exposure to glucocorticoids (GCs) used to induce fetal lung maturation in women threatened by premature labour is known to induce aberrations in brain development and stress sensitivity, cognitive dysfunction and neuro-psychiatric disorders in later life which all predict early brain ageing. Another common source of fetal GC exposure …
Effect of Cooling on Balance Performance in Multiple Sclerosis
The goal of this observational study to examine the effects of cooling on balance in persons with Multiple Sclerosis. Persons with Multiple Sclerosis frequently have problems with balance leading to falls and related injuries, as well as avoidance of activities that may challenge balance. Persons with Multiple Sclerosis are also …
The MS-CEBA Study: Determining Cognitive, Energetic, Behavioural and Affective (CEBA) Profiles in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an invalidating neurological disease known to cause physical symptoms, which usually are the main focus of treatment. However, non-physical, more neuropsychological, symptoms also frequently occur, concerning the Cognitive, Energetic, Behavioural and Affective (CEBA) domains. Symptoms in the CEBA domains are known to negatively affect societal participation, …
Assessing the Role of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
The purpose of this project is to study genetic determinants of mitochondrial impairment in primary progressive multiple sclerosis. Specific aims are: 1) identify mitochondrial-related pathways, inherited and somatic mitochondrial DNA mutations associated to primary progressive multiple sclerosis, 2) functionally assess the identified genetic alterations.
Evaluation of Clinical, Morphologic and Biochemical Markers in Multiple Sclerosis
By combining clinical, morphological and biochemical markers a better understanding of the formation and progression of multiple sclerosis (MS) should be obtained
Development of a Novel Functional Eye-Tracking Software Application for Multiple Sclerosis
This study aims to develop and validate a sensitive and non-invasive eye-tracking software application. This study will obtain participant responses to brief cognitive tests designed to evaluate several key functions known to be affected by MS and non-invasive eye movement measurements in response to visually presented stimuli during specifically designed …
