Current trends in the teatment of multiple sclerosis

Overview

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, in the pathogenesis of which both autoimmune inflammation and neurodegeneration play a role. It is a serious disease diagnosed most often in young adulthood and, without treatment, is the most common cause of non-traumatic disability at this age. Therapy, which is currently available immediately after diagnosis, leads to a significant improvement in the prognosis and quality of life of patients.
