Article Abstract
In a genome wide association study consisting of 592 German multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and 825 controls we were able to replicate the association of the HLA region with MS independently of previous case control studies. No SNPs outside the HLA region reached a genome wide level of significance. Nevertheless, we found suggestive evidence for an association of MS with variants in two new genes, the VAV2 gene and the gene for ZNF433.

Fatigue remains a poorly understood symptom in individuals with ALS, and little is known about its associtation with other symptoms, including functional impairment, cognition, and pain. To identify the levels of fatigue, pain, ALSFRS-R, and cognition of a Brazilian group of individuals with ALS, in order to verify possible influences between these symptoms and fatigue. This is a cross-sectional study conducted with individuals with ALS who were recruited intentionally, using a non-probabilistic sampling method.

Background: There is limited knowledge on the post-glymphatic structures such as the parasagittal dural (PSD) space and the arachnoid granulations (AGs) in multiple sclerosis (MS).
Objectives: To evaluate differences in volume and macromolecular content of PSD and AG between people with newly diagnosed MS (pwMS), clinically isolated syndrome (pwCIS), or radiologically isolated syndrome (pwRIS) and healthy controls (HCs) and their associations with clinical and radiological disease measures.
Methods: A total of 69 pwMS, pwCIS, pwRIS, and HCs underwent a 3.

Background: The progressive legalization and widespread use of cannabis has led to its use as a treatment for certain neuropsychiatric disorders. Traditional epidemiological studies suggest that cannabis use has an effect on some neurocognitive aspects. However, it is unclear whether cannabis use is causally related to common neuropsychiatric disorders.

Background: Social determinants of health (SDH) can influence some outcomes related to multiple sclerosis (MS), including disability accrual and disease progression. The relationship between SDH and MS is complex, due to interplay between factors and bidirectionality. Inequities also occur in countries with universal health care system like Italy.
