* could not find a better subject **

This looks so close to CCSVI. The research seems to be done in 2002:

There are many papers out there about ccsvi, but they are not related to MS until Zamboni made the connection.

I have several starting from the 1990's. One is about a woman ith IJV stenosis from dialysis, who developed neurological problems. Once the occlusion was ballooned and stented, her problems disappeared.

Yes, and this study also shows how refluxed blood does make it eventually back to the heart, through collateral or contra-lateral pathways, but first (in this case) it has to get across to the other side veins through the dural sinus. I imagine this was discovered while trying to treat symptoms, and a non-drug-based approach obviously worked. Of course this was before CCSVI, and before Dr. F met Dr. Z, resulting in the well-known ice-cleaning machine slide being shown at an MS Society presentation...

I think those lab mice need some doctors more than humans do.
