Evidence for axonal pathology and adaptive cortical reorganization in patients at presentation with clinically isolated syndromes suggestive of multiple sclerosis
Previous work has suggested that functional reorganization of cortical areas might have a
role in limiting the clinical impact of axonal pathology in patients with established multiple …

Simple and complex movement‐associated functional MRI changes in patients at presentation with clinically isolated syndromes suggestive of multiple sclerosis
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we investigated whether movement‐associated
functional changes of the brain are present in patients who are, most likely, at the …

fMRI changes in relapsing‐remitting multiple sclerosis patients complaining of fatigue after IFNβ‐1a injection
…, F Agosta, B Colombo, DM Mezzapesa… - Human brain …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
If fatigue in multiple sclerosis (MS) is related to an abnormal activation of the sensorimotor
brain network, the activity of such a network should vary with varying fatigue. We studied 22 …
