Abstract:
Functional disorders due to multiple sclerosis are evaluated using rating scales. EDSS is a scant which is very inadequate in evaluating cognitive functions, is significantly limited in evaluating upper extremity functions and is highly difficult to repeat. Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) is considered as a test that has been proposed in recent years in MS clinical trials and can overcome these negative features of EDSS. Three primary assessment methods were suggested for MSFC (9): 1) 25-step walking, 2) 9-Hole Peg test (9-HPT), and 3) Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test-3 (PASAT-3).

Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
