概括
高效疗法可以改善多发性硬化症 (MS) 管理,但认知能力下降仍然存在. 在MRI上对磁边缘损伤 (PRL) 预测MS患者的符号数字模式测试 (SDMT) 下降,突出显示慢性炎症.
科学领域:
- 神经免疫学 神经免疫学
- 神经成像是一种神经成像.
- 认知神经学 认知神经学
背景情况:
- 高效的疾病修饰疗法 (HETs) 已经推进了多发性硬化症 (MS) 护理.
- 尽管有HET,持续的认知衰退仍然是患者面临的重大挑战.
研究的目的:
- 为了评估符号数字模式测试 (SDMT) 性能在稳定的复发性复发性多发性硬化症 (RRMS) 患者在HETs上的变化.
- 确定基线MRI生物标志物,预测这些患者的认知变化 (SDMT).
主要方法:
- 在HET上对RRMS患者进行24个月的随访,不包括复发或MRI活动的患者.
- 使用SDMT和可靠的变化指数评估认知变化.
- 基线MRI包括FLAIR,T1-MPRAGE和对偏磁边缘病变 (PRLs) 和同强度病变 (ISO) 的定量敏感度映射 (QSM).
主要成果:
- 包括90名RRMS患者;51.1%的人在基线有PRL.
- 在24个月后,14.4%的人显示SDMT下降,8.9%的人改善.
- 多变量分析将PRL与较高的SDMT下降风险联系在一起 (OR:14.82),ISO病变与较弱的SDMT改善联系在一起 (OR:1.07).
结论:
- 即使在两年内没有临床或MRI活动的MS患者中,SDMT变化也会发生.
- 偏磁边缘病变 (PRLs) 成为MS认知衰退的重要预测因素.
- 这些发现强调了分隔性慢性炎症在MS进展中的作用.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...
Multiple Sclerosis l: Introduction
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. It is an inflammatory demyelinating disorder and a leading cause of neurological disability in young adults.EpidemiologyMS commonly begins between 20 and 40 years of age and is twice as common in women. Its exact cause remains unclear, but genetic susceptibility contributes, with higher risk in first-degree relatives and identical twins. A greater...
