#BrainAtrophy and #CognitiveImpairment in #MS - Closely interlinked, and of great importance to PWMS. Cognitive impairment being associated with more care needs and worse quality of life - focus on slowing/stopping this is essential!

An excellent overview of #SMOULDERINGMS - how we see progression independent of relapses #PIRA, what processes are involved and what #biomarkers will let us ultimately lead to individualized treatment!

What is MS progression? Our understanding of progress independent of disease activity (PIRA) has grown over the last 20 years, with clinical and real world studies confirming that once relapses are controlled with DMTs progression can still happen!
