Clinical manifestations of #SmoulderingMS are often poorly acknowledged. We challenge the current dogmatic view of #MS, proposing the concept of smouldering associated worsening (#SAW) @AnToSc @GavinGiovannoni @BagnatoLab @LauraAiras1

Is Smouldering MS the real #MS? On 8 September we hosted a #triMSx webinar that featured five leading HCPs presenting on a range of topics to explore the disease process of smouldering MS. Take a look at the infographic for a short summary: tinyurl.com/triMSx-Infograph…

In a cohort of ~500 pregnant women with #MS there was no spike in relapse rates post-partum either due to milder disease, exclusive breast-feeding, or both #AANAM

Using Na-MRI we showed that cortical grey matter Na+ accumulation is associated with disability and progression in relapse-onset #MS. A potential novel outcome measure for future neuroprotection trials 🧠 jnnp.bmj.com/content/early/2…

A new study shows that there is a limited regeneration of cells in the brain of patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). The findings reported in a Nature paper, underline the importance of treating MS at an early stage of the disease progression. go.nature.com/2FMO8yU

My granddad was an avid nazi until his death in the early 90s. He was a small town banker, volunteered in 40 and became a staff sergeant in the Wehrmacht. He was leading a so called "anti partisan" unit at the Eastern Front, participated in the capture of Kiew.

Our new paper out today in #JAMA shows that DMT reduce the risk of conversion to Secondary Progressive MS ja.ma/2FADcmS Fingolimod, Natalizumab and Alemtuzumab lower this risk more so than platform therapy (HR 0.66)
