Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Many important developments have occurred in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) in the last two decades. The long-term effects of treatments, except-disease modifying agents such as interferon and glatiramer, are not clear. Studies about the natural course of disease performed during the pre-treatment era showed that approximately half of patients transform to progressive stage in 15 years. The amount of disease-course modifying effects of current treatments is not clear. A cohort study by researchers from the University of California in San Francisco (UCSF) tried to answer this question (1).
