Summary
PicoTesla range magnetic fields (MF) rapidly improved cognitive and visuoperceptive symptoms in a multiple sclerosis (MS) patient. This study confirms MF efficacy for treating MS cognitive deficits.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Neuroscience
- Biophysics
Background:
- Cognitive deficits are common in multiple sclerosis (MS), affecting memory, visuoperception, and visuomotor skills.
- Demyelinating plaques disrupt nerve conduction and serotoninergic pathways, contributing to MS-related cognitive impairment.
- Previous research highlights the high incidence of cognitive deficits, particularly in progressive MS.
