Multiple sclerosis patients elicit robust T-cell responses to mRNA COVID-19 vaccines

New research shows that Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients undergoing anti-CD20 (aCD20) treatment – which depletes the B cells that contribute to the MS attacks – are able to mount robust T-cell responses to the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, despite having a muted antibody response to the vaccines.

People with multiple sclerosis (MS) who are diagnosed with colorectal cancer may be at a higher risk of dying from cancer or other causes over the next six months to one year than people with colorectal cancer who do not have MS, according to a study published in the September 15, 2021, online issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

Infections during adolescence linked to increased risk of developing MS later in life

According to a new study, severe infections during adolescence may lead to an increased risk of contracting MS later in life. "We're talking mainly about brain and spinal cord infections, but also respiratory tract infections," says Scott Montgomery, professor at örebro University.

People with MS and depression have an increased risk of death, study shows

Depression is common in people with multiple sclerosis (MS), and a new study shows that people with both conditions may be more likely to die over the next decade than people with just one or neither condition.
