Multiple sclerosis and fatigue: A review on the contribution of inflammation and immune-mediated neurodegeneration.
125
TL;DR: A growing amount of data shows that the highly effective immunotherapeutics which have been introduced to MS-treatment over the last years effectively and sustainably stabilize and ameliorate fatigue in parallel to their dampening effects on the neuroinflammatory process.

Prevalence of fatigue and its association with clinical features in progressive and non-progressive forms of Multiple Sclerosis.
TL;DR: Higher fatigue severity and impact were associated with greater physical, cognitive, and psychological impairment, although the strength of association between these outcomes was generally similar regardless of the type of MS.

Symptomatology and symptomatic treatment in multiple sclerosis: Results from a nationwide MS registry.
Paulus S. Rommer,Kerstin Eichstädt,David Ellenberger,Peter Flachenecker,Tim Friede,Judith Haas,Christoph Kleinschnitz,Dieter Pöhlau,Otto Rienhoff,Alexander Stahmann,Uwe K. Zettl +10 more
TL;DR: The need for psychological support, physical, and occupational therapy has to be recognized as neuropsychological symptoms have a great impact on retirement at an early stage as symptomatic treatment rates for the most common symptoms have increased over the last years.

Potential pathophysiological pathways that can explain the positive effects of exercise on fatigue in multiple sclerosis: A scoping review
TL;DR: Though the underlying key cellular and molecular cascades still have to be fully elucidated, exercise holds the potential to alleviate MS fatigue, through both primary and secondary fatigue pathways.

Nanostructured lipid carriers engineered for intranasal delivery of teriflunomide in multiple sclerosis: optimization and in vivo studies.
TL;DR: It can be inferred that the nose-to-brain delivery of TFM-MNLC can be considered as effective and safe delivery for brain disorders.

Spasticity in multiple sclerosis: Contribution of inflammation, autoimmune mediated neuronal damage and therapeutic interventions.
Robert Patejdl,Uwe K. Zettl +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge on the immunologic pathways that are involved in the development, maintenance, dynamic changes and pharmacological modulation of spasticity in MS.

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale.
A. S. Zigmond,R. P. Snaith +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the introduction of the scales into general hospital practice would facilitate the large task of detection and management of emotional disorder in patients under investigation and treatment in medical and surgical departments.

The Fatigue Severity Scale: Application to Patients With Multiple Sclerosis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
TL;DR: A fatigue severity scale was internally consistent, correlated well with visual analogue measures, clearly differentiated controls from patients, and could detect clinically predicted changes in fatigue over time and identify features that distinguish fatigue between two chronic medical disorders.

Axonal transection in the lesions of multiple sclerosis.
TL;DR: Transected axons are common in the lesions of multiple sclerosis, and axonal transection may be the pathologic correlate of the irreversible neurologic impairment in this disease.

Heterogeneity of multiple sclerosis lesions: implications for the pathogenesis of demyelination.
Claudia F. Lucchinetti,Wolfgang Brück,Joseph E. Parisi,Bernd W. Scheithauer,Moses Rodriguez,Hans Lassmann +5 more
TL;DR: At a given time point of the disease, the patterns of demyelination were heterogeneous between patients, but were homogenous within multiple active lesions from the same patient, suggesting that MS may be a disease with heterogeneous pathogenetic mechanisms.

Chris H. Polman,Eva Havrdova,Michael Hutchinson,Ludwig Kappos,David Miller,J. Theodore Phillips,Fred D. Lublin,Gavin Giovannoni,A Wajgt,Martin Toal,F Lynn,Michael Panzara,Alfred Sandrock +12 more
TL;DR: Natalizumab reduced the risk of the sustained progression of disability and the rate of clinical relapse in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis and hold promise as an effective treatment for relapsed multiple sclerosis.
