In this mouse model of multiple sclerosis (EAE Study) α4β7-blocking antibodies (DATK 32) were successful at reducing severity even though they selectively block lymphocyte entry in the gut and not the CNS (unlike tysabri/tyruko) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31597098/

Performance of multiple sclerosis diagnostic criteria from different epochs. The 2024 (most recent) criteria are only 81.4% sensitive (compared to the clinician's diagnosis), but is this due to limitations of the criteria or are doctors misdiagnosing some. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41776382/

Diagnostic performance of central vein sign, paramagnetic rim lesion and cortical lesion in Asian patients with multiple sclerosis - PubMed Combining Select 6 or CVS number with PRL and CL, particularly in patients <50 or <70 years, provides robust diagnostic performance for MS in the Asian population.

A study on the central vein sign and paramagnetic rim lesions in Asian people with multiple sclerosis shows similar data to other ethnicities. PRL 100% specific but only present in 63% with MS. 6 or more central veins 69.1% sensitivity/98.1% specificity pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41755542

Novantrone, no longer used in multiple sclerosis due to risks of heart failure and leukemia actually had fairly impressive data for its time in disability, relapse, and MRI outcomes.

Predictors of worsening disability in multiple sclerosis: being older, having other autoimmune diseases, more disability at baseline, low physical activity, being overweight/obese, smoking, low sun exposure (data from 3567 individuals with newly diagnosed with MS in Sweden).
