A first part of research project was to study the Internal Jugular Veins dynamics in MS patients compared with healthy controls using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography. The patients with MS showed a significantly reduction of wash-out rate compared to healthy controls [22.2% (2.7%-65.9%) vs. 33.4% (16.2%-76.8%); P<0.005].

Re: Doctoral thesis. Study the Internal Jugular Veins dynami
Seems to me it has been proven beyond reasonable doubt that pwMS have, more than healthy people, a head drainage problem. I use this knowledge every day to avoid falls, since I know a posture change requires a 10-20 second wait before locomation is safe. It works. I have not fallen this year at all (except for once when my walker collapsed), though in prior years I did, a lot. My arms and legs were permanently bruised. Now, look ma, no bruises!
Dr. Zamboni has given us better science, better instruments and techniques to measure the non-cylindrical human jugular pulsation. Seems the second part of this study was on mice. There is a great mouse model of MS which requires use of human CSF from MS patients. Why bother with more mice models?
