2019

In their JNNP paper, Coe et al report the preliminary results of a feasibility trial on flavonoid enriched cocoa for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) related fatigue, showing promising results that encourage the conduction of a phase III clinical trial to confirm the results of possible clinical effects on MS related fatigue.1 As described in the paper,1 fatigue is the most common symptom reported by individuals affected by MS, affecting the majority of patients.

Skala Niesprawności Neurologicznej Szpitala Guy jako istotne narzędzie do oceny objawów występujących u osób z SM

2017

Skala Niesprawności Neurologicznej Szpitala Guy (GNDS, The Guy’s Neurological Disability Scale) jest istotnym narzędziem służącym do pomiaru niepełnosprawności u osób ze stwardnieniem rozsianym. Służy ona do określenia poziomu funkcjonowania w dwunastu ważnych obszarach. Celem obecnych badań było opracowanie polskiej wersji językowej skali GNDS i sprawdzenie jej trafności, rzetelności oraz przydatności do oceny niepełnosprawności występującej u osób ze stwardnieniem rozsianym. Grupę badaną stanowiło 175. pacjentów z rozpoznaniem stwardnienia rozsianego. W badaniu wykorzystano Rozszerzoną Skalę Niewydolności Ruchowej – EDSS, Skalę Niesprawności Neurologicznej Szpitala Guy – GNDS, Skalę Akcep…
