Article Abstract
Background And Purpose: The rapidly evolving landscape of effective treatment options in multiple sclerosis has led to a shift of treatment objectives towards a treat-to-target approach aiming to suppress disease activity below the level of detectability early during the disease. To enable treat-to-target, a thorough reappraisal of available outcome measures with respect to their ability in this regard is required.
Methods: To that end, we conducted a comprehensive systematic literature review of more than 1000 studies using PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 methodology focusing on underlying evidence as well as utility and implementability in clinical practice.
Results: From there, we propose a set of measurable outcomes for everyday routine clinical practice as well as advanced/aspirational measurables requiring additional resources. We also outline remaining knowledge/technology gaps that need to be overcome to enable a treat-to-target approach.
Conclusions: This work provides the basis for an evidence-based definition of outcome targets for relevant stakeholders and regulatory authorities.

Genomewide association study of a homogeneous multiple sclerosis cohort: Tumefactive demyelination.
Mult Scler
September 2025
Department of Quantitative Health Sciences, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Background: Tumefactive demyelination (TD) is a rare variant of multiple sclerosis (MS) characterized by tumor-like lesions that often require aggressive management. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified variants associated with MS; similar analyses in TD are lacking.
Objective: A GWAS was performed to identify variants associated with TD.
Case study exploring the benefits of clean intermittent self-catheterisation for a patient with multiple sclerosis.

The aim of this case study is to illustrate the benefits of clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) who have incomplete bladder emptying. People with MS usually start to experience bladder symptoms 6-8 years after diagnosis, although some individuals experience symptoms from the time of diagnosis. MS is a condition of the central nervous system that affects the brain and spinal cord; the immune system attacks myelin, a substance that protects the nerve fibres, preventing messages travelling smoothly along the fibres to control the whole body, which includes the nerves that control the bladder.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS) is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular diseases globally, characterised by the accumulation of lipids and cholesterol in arterial walls, causing vascular narrowing and sclerosis along with chronic inflammation; this leads to increased risk of heart disease and stroke, significantly impacting patients' health. Danxia Tiaoban Decoction (DXTB), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, has demonstrated positive clinical effects in treating AS; however, its mechanisms of action remain unclear.
Objective: To explore the potential mechanisms of action of DXTB in treating AS through multi-omics integration and experimental validation.
Endoscopic Transcortical Tubular-based Resection of a Third Ventricle Colloid Cyst: 2-Dimensional Operative Video.

Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Neurological Sciences, Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, Naples, Italy.
We present a case of third ventricle colloid cyst surgical resection using a tubular-based endoscopic transcortical approach. Third ventricle colloid are rare benign lesions typically found in the anterolateral part of the third ventricle, close to the foramen of Monro. Several surgical approaches have been employed for their management.

Clin Nutr ESPEN
September 2025
Department of Epidemiology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA.
Background & Aims: People with multiple sclerosis (MS) may be predisposed to malnutrition as several malnutrition risk factors are common among this group; however, evidence on malnutrition in MS is sparse. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to explore what is known about malnutrition in MS.
Methods: A scoping review was performed in 5 databases (Ovid Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central, Scopus, and the Web of Science Core Collection) in February 2024.
