A scoping review on muscle cramps and spasms in upper motor neuron disorder-two sides of the same coin? - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38497037/
Muscle cramps and spasms probably represent related symptoms with a shared pathophysiological component. When considering future treatment strategies, it is important to recognize that part of the patient's spasms may...
This study explores the overlap between muscle cramps and spasms in upper motor neuron disorders, suggesting they share a pathophysiological component and emphasizing the need for clearer definitions and treatment strategies.
Prodromal multiple sclerosis: considerations and future utility - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38341810/
A multiple sclerosis (MS) prodrome has recently been described and is characterised by increased rates of healthcare utilisation and an excess frequency of fatigue, bladder problems, sensory symptoms and pain,...
The MS prodrome, characterized by increased healthcare use and early symptoms, offers potential for early risk identification, prevention, and intervention. Further research is needed to define its length, specificity, and benefits.
Towards new perspectives: A scoping review and meta-synthesis to redefine brain health for multiple sclerosis - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38226556/
Brain health should be considered a primary target for optimal disease and lifestyle management across the MS disease course. A working definition reflecting a shift from a medical lens towards...
A scoping review on brain health in multiple sclerosis identified 70 evidence sources, highlighting definitions, outcome measures (mainly MRI), and lifestyle factors like physical activity, smoking avoidance, and diet.
MS care: integrating advanced therapies and holistic management - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38351950/
Lifestyle and environmental factors are key determinants in disease causality and progression in neurological conditions, including multiple sclerosis (MS). Lack of exercise, poor diet, tobacco smoking, excessive alcohol intake, social...
Lifestyle and environmental factors impact multiple sclerosis progression. Adopting brain-healthy, metabolically-healthy habits, alongside disease-modifying therapies, and emphasizing self-management with a multidisciplinary approach, can improve outcomes in MS patients.
Impact of Lifestyle Interventions on Multiple Sclerosis: Focus on Adipose Tissue - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39339700/
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by demyelination in the central nervous system (CNS), affecting individuals globally. The pathological mechanisms underlying MS remain unclear, but current evidence...
This review explores the role of adipose tissue, adipokines, and lifestyle factors like physical activity and nutrition in modulating inflammation and immune responses, aiming to improve multiple sclerosis management and quality of life.
