P 70: Primary Progressive MS and Affecting Genes
Multiple sclerosis is a CNS autoimmune disease configured by demyelination, inflammation, and degeneration of axons. This disease inflict great harms to patients. The most common problem is inability to control musculoskeletal system and decrease in mobility. These consequences could vary from patients to patients. About 10-15% of all MS patients develop primary progressive MS (PPMS). Despite t...
متن کاملOlfactory dysfunction in patients with primary progressive MS
OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that olfactory function is more impaired in patients with primary progressive MS (PPMS) than that in relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS). METHODS Standardized olfactory testing was performed in 32 patients with PPMS, 32 patients with RRMS, and 32 healthy controls (HCs). Patients with olfactory dysfunction due to an alternative primary etiology were excluded. The v...
متن کاملPRIMARY BILI A RY CIRRHOSIS IN A PATIENT WITH PROGRESSIVE SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS. A CASE REPORT
A 63-year-old woman suffering from progressive systemic sclerosis for about 20 years disclosed symptoms of liver disease within the last three years. Diagnosis of biliary cirrhosis was established on the basis of clinical picture, pathological examination of the hepatic tissue sample, immunological tests, and x-ray studies. Association of systemic sclerosis with primary biliary cirrhosis is...
متن کاملFuzzy Efficiency Measures in DEA: A New Approach based on Fuzzy DEA Approach with Double Frontiers
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method to measure relative efficiency of a set of decision-making units (DMUs) which uses multiple inputs and produces multiple outputs. In the conventional DEA, crisp inputs and outputs are fundamentally necessary. But the observed values of inputs and outputs in real-world problems are sometimes imprecise. Thus, performance measurement often needs to be do...
متن کاملGrey and white matter volume changes in early primary progressive multiple sclerosis: a longitudinal study.
We have recently reported brain atrophy in the early stages of primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS), affecting both grey and white matter (GM and WM). However, to date no clinical or radiological predictors of GM and WM atrophy have been identified. The aim was to investigate short-term changes in GM and WM volumes and to assess the predictive value of demographic, clinical and radiolo...
