SUMMARY: The corpus callosum (CC) includes the majority of fibers linking the two brain hemispheres. Several cross sectional studies showed an association between callosal atrophy and malfunction and neurodegenerative diseases, which may play a role in their pathological manifestations. As a result, the ...
ABSTRACT Background: Multiple sclerosis exhibits specific neuropathological phenomena driving to both global and regional brain atrophy. At the clinical level, the disease is related to functional decline in cognitive domains as the working memory, processing speed, and verbal fluency. However, the comp...

Objetivo: identificar a prevalência do diagnóstico de enfermagem Mobilidade Física Prejudicada, suas características definidoras e fatores relacionados em pessoas com Esclerose múltipla e verificar a associação entre ambos e suas razões de prevalência. Métodos: estudo transversal com 113 pacien...
ABSTRACT Objective The treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) has quickly evolved from a time when controlling clinical relapses would suffice, to the present day, when complete disease control is expected. Measurement of brain volume is still at an early stage to be indicative of therapeutic decisions i...
ABSTRACT The existence of a benign multiple sclerosis (BMS) form is a controversial subject. Recent studies of these patients reveal different levels of cognitive impairment, despite the apparent preservation of motor function. The objective of this study was to review and analyze a number of publication...
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) prevalence is higher in Caucasian (CA) populations, narrowing the analysis of the impact of Afro-descendant (AD) populations in disease outcomes. Even so, recent studies observed that AD patients have a more severe course. The main objective of this study is to confirm an...
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) was always considered as a white matter inflammatory disease. Today, there is an important body of evidence that supports the hypothesis that gray matter involvement and the neurodegenerative mechanism are at least partially independent from inflammation. Gray matter atro...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common demyelinating disease that involves the central nervous system causing focal lesions in the brain and spinal cord causing diverse neurological development deficits, many of them severe and irreversible, affecting and invaliding a large percentage of young productive-ag...
