Early studies suggest these approaches may be helpful & engaging for some people, particularly as they can often be done at home. Larger studies are still needed to better understand how effective these technologies are & how they might fit into #MS care in the future. [2/2]

Researchers are increasingly exploring how digital tools might support rehabilitation for people with #MultipleSclerosis. Tech such as mobile apps, wearable devices & movement-based “exergaming” are being studied as new ways to support physical activity, balance & mobility. [1/2]

It is also a reminder that prejudice can impact all people living with #MS & that building a truly inclusive & supportive community must remain a priority. [2/2]

A @UTEP study finds people with #MultipleSclerosis in racial & ethnic minority groups face increased levels of stigma, reducing their social participation. To those in these communities who have experienced this, we stand with you & will continue working to create change. [1/2]

It was also shown early indications of brain atrophy provided the best prediction for people that would later develop these cognitive issues. These results reaffirm a need to monitor cognition often & suggest a possible biomarker to detect those that may be at future risk. [2/3]

A new study has found most cognitive decline in people living with relapsing-remitting #MultipleSclerosis occurs in the absence of relapses. This has been termed "cognitive PIRA". #MS [1/3]

Known as the STRONG-MS Study, this is a collaborative investigation involving researchers from @Deakin, @MonashUni, @MonashHealth, @EdithCowanUni, @PerronInstitute, @Griffith_Uni and The Bone Clinic. Learn more: mstrials.org.au/strong-ms-bone… [2/2]

An Australian study is testing if a supervised high-intensity resistance & impact program can improve quality of life for those living with #MultipleSclerosis. It’ll also assess if targeted strength training can safely improve bone health, physical function, fatigue & mood. [1/2]

Rehabilitation in MS is more than exercise. 🎧 In this new episode recorded at #ECTRIMS2025, experts discuss vocational rehab, mental health, digital screening & why rehab should start at diagnosis — not later.

This @ConversationEDU article explores a new study that suggests EBV may play a role in #MultipleSclerosis by altering the way B cells behave. This feature has been authored by Dr @EannaFennell from @UL, who was directly involved in the research project. theconversation.com/the-virus-near…

These findings add to growing evidence that managing other health conditions, including through healthy lifestyle choices and appropriate medical care, is an important part of overall #MS management. Learn more: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41664380/ [2/2]

Research from @MonashUni and @ucl has shown that high blood pressure and high cholesterol were associated with increased disability progression in people living with secondary progressive #MultipleSclerosis (SPMS). [1/2]

Understanding this connection more clearly could help open the door to new & more targeted treatments for MS in the future. Learn more here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41644766/

A small @UCSF led study has found T cells that recognise Epstein-Barr virus were more common in the CSF of people living with #MultipleSclerosis than controls. This adds to growing evidence that this common virus may play an important role in how #MS develops & progresses.

🚨 Exclusive Podcast Episode | New Phase 3 data presented at @ACTRIMS suggest fenebrutinib may meaningfully impact non-relapsing progressive disease biology – a key limitation of current therapies. 🎧 Hear the lead trial experts talk about what this could mean for #PPMS patients: • Spotify: bit.ly/3MksuWl • Apple: apple.co/4rAsUXF @UCSF @Penn @Mstranslate #FENtrepid #MultipleSclerosis #PrimaryProgressiveMS #PPMS #ClinicalTrials #ACTRIMSForum #ECTRIMSPodcast

Urinary incontinence is a common #MultipleSclerosis symptom that greatly impacts quality of life. A new, small study found rehabilitation programs focussed on strengthening abdominal & pelvic floor muscles may help reduce incontinence, while improving balance & everyday function.

Further studies are needed to better understand this association & determine whether or not it may also impact on disease progression. [2/2]

A new Australian study has found that a diet rich in flavonoids may reduce the risk of developing #MultipleSclerosis. Flavonoids are natural compounds found in many foods (incl. berries, dark chocolate, kale & citrus fruits) & make up a key part of the Mediterranean #diet. [1/2]

This video was born out of a very interesting discussion that occurred under one of our recently published Facebook posts. A great example of how our community can shape the direction of our content. If you have ideas for future features, please don't hesitate to share them!

As our understanding of #MultipleSclerosis continues to evolve, so too does our thinking about how #MS has traditionally been classified. Our co-founder & chief science communicator, Brett Drummond, explores this topic in a recently published video. youtube.com/watch?v=IKnvyO…
