Researchers are in the early stages of experimenting with electrical stimulation techniques to improve cognition in multiple sclerosis and other brain disorders. Don t try this at home, they caution. MS Discovery Studies in animals and people have linked obesity to inflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University are testing calorie restriction for its safety and effectiveness in reducing disease severity in people with relapsing-remitting MS. MS Discovery Some people with MS have small long-lasting inflammatory lesions in the lining outside the brain, which may play a role in progressive disease. The discovery has prompted researchers to try to target these lesions more directly. MS Discovery To preserve brain health in multiple sclerosis, research suggests the optimal treatment regime starts early and closely monitors patients by MRI if possible to switch therapies before a disabling relapse.
