Correlation between Acoustic Parameters and Disease Severity and Duration in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Since in multiple sclerosis (MS), changes in speech and voice quality often precede other signs and symptoms; early diagnosis of these changes is necessary. In this study, an acoustic examination of phonation subsystem was performed. Due to the progressive nature of multiple sclerosis, the aim of this study was to examine the correlation between acoustic parameters ...
متن کاملAssociation of plasma levels of Protein S with disease severity in multiple sclerosis
BACKGROUND The TAM family of receptor tyrosine kinases (TYRO3, AXL and MERTK) play important roles in modulating innate immune responses and central demyelination. The TAM receptor ligand Protein S (PROS) has also been shown to modulate innate immune cell responses. OBJECTIVES We assessed whether plasma levels of PROS are changed in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and whether changes are ass...
