Brain volumes in children with multiple sclerosis (MS) were smaller than in those without the disease due to a lack of age-expected brain growth and progressive atrophy, researchers reported.
Using longitudinal MRI data from patients with relapsing-remitting MS onset prior to age 18, Berengere Aubert-Broche, PhD, of McGill University in Montreal and colleagues noted that "significant group and age interactions were found with the adjusted models fitting brain volumes and normalized thalamus volumes (P<0.10-4)." They also found that T2 lesion volume correlated with a greater reduction in age-expected thalamic volume compared with children without MS......... Read More - http://www.ms-uk.org/paediatric

Re: Children with MS have lower brain volumes
Of course, this is the vascular comorbidity, the angiopathy caused by the virus VZV.
Gates are jammed, cellular respiration is impaired, cells loose size.
