[ 2 ] - P36: The Interplay of Multiple Sclerosis and Menstrual Cycle: which one Affects the Other One?
Menstruation is suggested to affect multiple sclerosis (MS) symptoms, while the effect of MS on menstruation is not studied before. Here, we aimed to compare the pattern of menstrual cycle and its symptoms between MS patients and healthy controls. This is a cross-sectional study conducted during 2015–2016 in MS clinic of Kashani hospital, Isfahan, Iran. We included female patien...
[ 3 ] - P37: Decreased Serum Levels of Interleukin-35 Among Patients with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis
The regulatory role of interleukin-35 (IL-35) in the immunopathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) is suggested in very few studies. We aimed to measure serum levels of IL-35 among clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) and relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) patients and evaluate the associations between this cytokine and the disease clinical course. This cross-sectional study was conducted during 2017 ...
[ 4 ] - Prevalence of Tremors in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis: A Cross-Sectional Study in Isfahan, Iran
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Tremors are a common problem in the patients suffering from MS which is mostly observed in the arms but can also affect the other body parts. There have been few studies on tremors among the MS patients. Objectives: This study is the first to report the prevalence of tremor in a group of MS pat...
[ 5 ] - 5-Year Survival in Gastric Adenocarcinoma with Epithelial and Stromal Versican Expression
Background & Objective: Gastric cancer is the second most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide, despite differences in incidence around the world. The majority of gastric cancer cases concern gastric adenocarcinoma, which has a fairly high 5-year survival rate when coupled with early-stage diagnosis. Versican, a member of the aggregating chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans fa...
[ 6 ] - بررسی ضخامت لایه فیبر عصبی شبکیه در بیماری مولتیپل اسکلروزیس عودکننده-بهبودیابنده: یک مطالعه آینده نگر
Background: Previous studies suggest that retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness decreases over time in multiple sclerosis (MS) and can be a marker of disease activity for patients’ follow-up. Here, we aimed to compare RNFL thickness in patients with relapsing remitting MS (RRMS) during three years of follow-up. Methods: During this prospective study, patients with diagnosis of RRMS and hi...
[ 7 ] - Case Reports: Ischemic Strokes in a Young Woman With Manifestations of Multiple Sclerosis
Background: The current case report aimed at describing the clinical, radiological, and immunological findings of a case of ischemic stroke due to acute thrombosis of the left internal carotid artery and multiple watershed infarctions mimicking Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Clinical Presentation and Intervention: A 24-year-old right-handed Iranian female was initially diagnosed with Multiple Sclero...
[ 8 ] - Association Between Sunlight Exposure and Vitamin D Intake and Multiple Sclerosis Disability and Progression
Background: Some studies on Multiple Sclerosis (MS) have suggested that adequate vitamin D intake can modulate the course of MS and decreases its incidence. However, there are limited studies with conflicting findings on the relation between MS severity, its course, and vitamin D intake. Objectives: The current study aimed to compare vitamin D intake and sunlight exposure between MS phenotype...
[ 9 ] - Assessment the Possible Association Between Neuromyelitis Optica and Cytomegalovirus as a Provocative Factor
Background: Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO) is an autoimmune inflammation of the central nervous system in which autoantibodies are released against Aquaporin-4 (AQP-4), astrocytic water channels. The disease is characterized by transverse myelitis and optic neuritis. Viruses could be inflammatory agents in the brain. Due to such inflammatory reactions, autoantibodies would cross the blood brain bar...
[ 10 ] - Comparison of Bladder Dysfunction and Urinary Symptoms Between Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder
Background: Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and multiple sclerosis (MS) are auto immune demyelinating disorders. Both MS and NMO patients suffer from urinary dysfunction. Objectives: Investigation of frequency and severity of urinary symptoms in two groups of MS and NMO patients. Materials & Methods: 56 MS patients and 20 NMO patients were enrolled in this cross sectional study conducted in Isfah...
[ 11 ] - Tumefactive Brain Lesions in Patients with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder
Background: Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) is an autoimmune neurological disorder that is characterized by optic neuritis and longitudinally-extended transverse myelitis lesions in spinal segments. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) findings are part of the diagnostic process in NMOSD patients, and abnormal lesion patterns may cause deviation from a correct diagnosis. Clinical P...
