How do neurologists perceive the organization and functioning of #MultipleSclerosis care units? Enhancing care coordination could improve care delivery and mitigate the risk of burnout for clinicians.

🚨 Paradigm shift in #MultipleSclerosis 🚨
New study in Nature Medicine shows MS is not fixed subtypes but a dynamic continuum of states across 4 dimensions: disability, brain damage, relapses & silent inflammation.

Happy to share @albertaboseif et al multicenter study showing 4% of #MOGAD with meningitis ➡️ Frequent misdiagnosis as infection ➡️ Updates in criteria could incorporate this phenotype ➡️ Path had meningeal T & B cells, microglia & cortical myelin loss👇 https://t.co/7gn8z4HzhH
11.7 Tesla Brain MRI 🧠 !
First scans from the world's most powerful MRI scanner! 🔥
It costs around 75 million euros for the 11.7 Tesla MRI machine! 😮 😲

This year’s congress may be over, BUT the sharing of knowledge is definitely not 👇 👇 👇

Nourbakhsh (US): prospective study on anti-CD20 ‘induction’ in RRMS:
6 months treatment only.
19 pts study…but nice results. Risk of reoccurrence of disease is higher in patients with central tolerance defect @baseline! B-cell return ‘as such’ is not predictive.
#ECTRIMS2024
Hogenboom (NL): first results of BLOOMS trial: standard vs extended interval dosing of ocrelizumab based on B-cell counts. No difference in efficacy (Relapses and MRI lesions)!
(Long term results to follow)
Big difference in intervals are seen (see slide)
#ECTRIMS2024
Fox Rob (US): tolebrutinib vs placebo in nrSPMS (HERCULES trial)
- 6m CDP: 31% decreases risk on tolebr
- 3m CDP: 24% “
- 6m CDI: increased chance on tolebr
- brain atrophy: no difference 🤔
Hopes are up for a change for persons with SPMS 🤞🏻👏🏻💪🏻
#ECTRIMS2024
Jiwon Oh (US): tolebrutinib vs teriflunimode in RRMS (GEMINI trials).
- ARR : no difference!
- 6m CDW: 29% reduction on tolebr
- 3m CDW: 27% reduction on tolebr
- New Gd+ lesions are higher on tolebrutinib!
- T2 lesions: no difference
- good safety profile
#ECTRIMS2024
Encouraging topline results regarding #tolebrutinib! In Hercules trial, tolebrutinib delayed disability progression vs. placebo in secondary-progressive MS patients without relapses. Thanks to our center's patients that participated in the trials! https://t.co/0uIZCjyJBk

A new @JAMA_current study found a blood test had high diagnostic accuracy for identifying Alzheimer disease among adults with cognitive symptoms.
This test could lead to early diagnosis and may facilitate timely access to new treatments.
