Cognitive behaviour therapy administered by telephone for the treatment of depressive
symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis significantly improved adherence to treatment and clinical outcomes.13 Management and follow up care by telephone of people with depression improves outcomes at modest cost.14 w46
This study, «Warmer outdoor temperature is associated with task - related increased BOLD
activation in patients with multiple sclerosis,» released by Brain Imaging & Behavior corroborates the group's previous study that established that people with MS performed worse on processing speed and memory tasks during warmer outdoor temperatures versus during cooler outdoor temperatures.
Leaky blood vessels in the brain called cerebral microbleeds are associated with an increased risk of physical and cognitive
disability in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), according to a new study by researchers in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the University at Buffalo.
Kessler will conduct a study of a combination therapy using dalfampridine — a drug recently approved to improve
walking in patients with multiple sclerosis — with a standardized program of locomotor training, a rehabilitative intervention that has improved walking and other functional outcomes in persons with spinal cord injuries.
We have found this imaging method to be very
useful in patients with multiple sclerosis, and now we are able to use it in patients who have Alzheimer's disease (AD), in order to get a sense of the problems that might be developing in their brain before memory problems occur.
A pilot study conducted by researchers from Charité's NeuroCure Cluster of Excellence has shown that treatment with deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) significantly reduces symptoms of
fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).
New research by King's College London, Imperial College London and Imanova Center for Imaging Sciences, suggests that brain inflammation could lead to increased rates of depressive symptoms
in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Ekaterina Dobryakova, Ph D., a postdoctoral fellow in Kessler Foundation Neuropsychology and Neuroscience Research received a competitive research award from the New Jersey Neuropsychological Society to study whether motivation influences cognitive fatigue and the brain regions associated with
it in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).
