background: intravenous immunoglobulin (ivig) is an established treatment of immune mediated demyelinating neuropathy including guillain-barré syndrome and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. recent trials suggest its efficacy in treating relapsing- remitting multiple sclerosis. ivig exerts a number of effects, which may be beneficial in treating multiple sclerosis (ms): reductio...

dear editor multiple sclerosis (ms) is the most common inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. ms is characterized by dissemination in time and place. dissemination can be clinically (clinically definite multiple sclerosis) or radiologically by magnetic resonance imaging (mri). correct diagnosis of ms needs dissemination both in time and in place and also exclusion of ...

results of all the ms patients, 78 (95.1%) and 21 (25.6%) were positive for anti-vzv and vzv dna, respectively. statistical analysis of the pcr results showed a significant correlation between the abundance of vzv and ms disease (p < 0.001). however, there was no significant correlation between the abundance of anti-vzv antibodies and ms disease by the elisa method. conclusions these results su...
