Consensus for the Early Identification of Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclero...

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is a disease with a heterogeneous evolution. The early identification of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis is a clinical challenge, which would benefit from the definition of biomarkers and diagnostic tools applicable in the transition phase from relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. We aimed to reach a Portuguese national con...

Late Onset Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (LONMOSD) from a Nationwide ...

Introduction: Several neuroimmunological disorders have distinct phenotypes according to the age of onset, as in multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis. It is also described that late onset NMOSD (LONMOSD) has a different phenotype. Objective: To describe the clinical/demographic characteristics of the LONMOSD and distinguish them from those with early onset (EONMOSD). Methods: From a nationwide Portuguese NMO...

REALMS Study: Real-World Effectiveness and Safety of Fingolimod in Patients wit...

Background: Fingolimod, an oral sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator, is approved by EMA for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Objectives: To assess the effectiveness and safety of fingolimod in patients with RRMS in real-world clinical practice in Portugal. Methods: Retrospective, multicentre, non-interventional study, reporting 3 years follow-up of data collected from October 2015 to July 2...

Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders: a Nationwide Portuguese Clinical Epide...

Introduction: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare disorder in which astrocyte damage and/or demyelination often cause severe neurological deficits. Objective: To identify Portuguese patients with NMOSD and assess their epidemiological/clinical characteristics. Methods: This was a nationwide multicenter study. Twenty-four Portuguese adult and 3 neuropediatric centers following NMOSD patients...

In-Hospital and Long-Term Prognosis after Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage ...

BACKGROUND: Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 10%-15% of all strokes and has an estimated annual incidence of 5/100,000 in young adults. Limited data on prognosis after ICH in young adults are available. We aimed to identify prognostic predictors after ICH among adults aged 18-65 years. METHODS: We retrospectively selected all patients with ICH from a prospective single-center registry of ...

A Multicenter, Non-Interventional Study to Evaluate the Disease Activity in Mul...

Objectives: Natalizumab (NTZ) is very effective for treatment of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), its use is mainly limited by safety issues. Discontinuation of NTZ is associated with recurrence of disease activity (reactivation and rebound). The best strategy for subsequent therapy and the predictive factors for recurrence in such patients are areas of active research. We aimed to evaluate predic...
