This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Mandibular disorders are more common in MS patients than control and the ratio is 3:1 (56.7% versus 16.7%). This is not exactly CCSVI but it fixes into the proposal of our upright doctor.

Prevalence of temporomandibular disorders symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence of symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in patients with the relapsing-remitting form of ...

Maybe this is not very related to CCSVI, or maybe it is. In any case is worth to share it.

Range of electrical frequencies that help heal chronic wounds tested by researchers


Date:

March 4, 2014


Source:

University of Cincinnati


Summary:


Hard-to-heal wounds, like diabetic ulcers, fester because of insufficient blood supply at the wound site. However, the application of an electrical stimulus can promote the growth of blood vessels, and new research examines the best stimulus parameters -- such as frequency and magnitude ...

Recently I have found a recent (Feb. 2014) book online by Hans Lassman. This author was a collaborator with Lucchinetti during the Lesion Project studies, and did also collaborate with the team that found anti-AQP4 in Neuromyelitis optica.

The reason why I want to share this book here is because it confirms some ideas that can be interested for the studies on CCSVI. The authors support the heterogeneity of MS lesions, classify them in four ...

After the Neurologist gave me the MS verdict in December 1981 I had the following dream. I had been running down a track when I was forced off to the side, I couldn’t keep up. After watching the roaring crowd race by, my body sank deep into the warm moist earth, curling up into a hard round tulip bulb. I would wait hidden until spring.

And spring did come. After a year of detoxification and ...

This is an incredible recent article in the New York Times that I think could have implications for future MS treatments, and may dovetail well with the idea that CCSVI treatment may work at least in part by stimulating the vagus nerve.

In a recent pilot study on people with rheumatoid arthritis (another autoimmune disease) scientists were able to significantly improve symptoms in the majority of their study subjects, by placing a tiny electrical stimulator ...

Researchers Report Alternate Explanation Discovery Of How And Why CCSVI Treatment Works In MS Patients


Here's an excerpt from the article, which was published yesterday on the website "Multiple Sclerosis News Today"

However, while the debate over CCSVI and MS continues, new data suggests that Dr. Zamboni may have gotten it right in looking at the veins for treatment, but it might not be venous abnormalities that are ...

Really, really interesting, multi-disciplinary study. They damage the endothelium with a laser, creating oxidative stress, and showed how endothelial dysfunction kept the blood vessels from dilating---thus limiting blood flow. Endothelial dysfunction might be the first step in neurological disease. Here's a new group for the ISNVD!

Modified approach to the treatment of autonomic dysfunction in MS patients

A new study sheds light on the positive effect of a venous procedure upon the sympathetic nervous system. Researchers were able to pinpoint how the procedure improved the abnormal sympathetic function found in patients with many chronic conditions including Multiple Sclerosis. Additionally, the study may offer insight on the beneficial effects of Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI) treatment.......... Read More - http://www.ms-uk.org/ccsviresearch
