Brain magnetic resonance imaging and multimodal evoked potentials in benign and secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.
Brain MRI and multimodal evoked potentials (EPs) were obtained for 13 patients with benign multiple sclerosis and 13 patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis, matched for age and duration of the disease, to investigate the nature of the disability in multiple sclerosis. Patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis had significantly greater lesion loads for five of seven ...
متن کاملCervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in multiple sclerosis participants
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease that affects brain and spinal cord. The infratentorial region contains the cerebellum and brainstem. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency myogenic responses. Cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) is a manifestation of vestibulocolic reflex and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic pote...
متن کاملImpairment, disability and fatigue in multiple sclerosis
Background: Identifying the predictors of pain is important for both health professionals and researchers, because pain has repeatedly been found to be a strong predictor of activity limitations and participation restrictions. The objective of this study was to determine the predictors of pain presence and severity in a large, well-designed sample of community dwelling individuals with multip...
متن کاملAuditory evoked potentials and multiple sclerosis.
UNLABELLED Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating disease that can affect several areas of the central nervous system. Damage along the auditory pathway can alter its integrity significantly. Therefore, it is important to investigate the auditory pathway, from the brainstem to the cortex, in individuals with MS. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to characterize auditory e...
متن کاملTongue somatosensory evoked potentials in multiple sclerosis
Objective: Th e aim of this study was to determine the effi cacy of tongue somatosensory evoked potentials (tSSEP) in the evaluation of brainstem involvement in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods: tSSEP was performed in ten healthy volunteers and 29 patients with fi rst clinical episode of a demyelinating event suggestive of MS. Th e data obtained were compared between the two group...
