Mindre risiko for handikap ved tidlig MS-behandling
Oslo, 30 oktober 2007 – Det er en tydelig forbindelse mellom sykdomsgraden tidlig i MS-forløpet og den kognitive evnen (for eksempel konsentrasjonsevnen og hukommelsen) i en senere fase, viser en helt ny studie. Jo mer skade sykdommen har rukket å forårsake før behandlingen starter, jo større er risikoen for både nevrologiske og kognitive handikap senere i sykdomsforløpet. Derfor er det viktig at behandlingen med effektive bremsemedisiner begynner tidlig.
