[Purpose] The aim of this study was to determine the effects of clinical Pilates in multiple sclerosis patients. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty multiple sclerosis patients were enrolled in this study. The participants were divided into two groups as the clinical Pilates and control groups. Cognition (Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite), balance (Berg Balance Scale), physical performance (ti...

sjogren-larsson syndrome (sls) is an inherited autosomal recessive neurocutaneous disorder with congenital ichthyosis, spastic diplegia or quadriplegia and mental retardation. we report a case of sjogren-larsson syndrome with clinical profile (mental retardation, ichthyosis, spastic diplegia) and mri findings such as seen in multiple sclerosis (ms). so this rare syndrome can be another differen...

conclusions these results suggest that treadmill training and yoga practice improved ambulatory function, fatigue and mood status in the individuals with mild to moderate ms. patients and methods thirty-one ms patients, all female with mean of age of 36.75 years and expanded disability status scale scores (edss) of 1.0 to 4.0 were recruited. subjects were randomly assigned to one of the three g...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a demyelinating neuro- inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. genetic predisposition has long been suspected in the etiology of this disease. the association between mthfr polymorphisms and ms has been ivestigated in different ethnic groups. we investigated the association between mthfr c677t and a1298c missense variants and ms in 180 patients ...

background: hormones can play a significant role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (ms). the aim of this study was to compare levels of ghrelin, leptin, and testosterone hormones of ms patients with healthy subjects, and assess the relationship between levels of peptide hormone and sex hormones in ms patients. methods: 35 ms patients with definite relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis ...

Disease progression in multiple sclerosis occurs within the interface of glial activation and gliosis. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between biomarkers of different glial cell responses: (i) to disease dynamics and the clinical subtypes of multiple sclerosis; (ii) to disability; and (iii) to cross-validate these findings in a post-mortem study. To address the first goal, 51 p...

Tuberous sclerosis complex manifests predominantly as a neurocutaneous disorder Lung involvement was considered rare. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis which occurs mainly in women of childbearing age is the major pulmonary disorder seen in tuberous sclerosis. Multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia has also been described in tuberous sclerosis. The case of a 51-year old female diagnosed with tub...

BACKGROUND Hand grip strength in both the dominant and non-dominant hands is often used to assess upper limb impairment. Excessive hand grip fatigability is another important measure, as fatigability may also influence activities of daily living. OBJECTIVE To investigate to what extent hand grip fatigability in multiple sclerosis is dependent on hand dominance, muscle strength and disease pro...
