Participate in a Clinical Trial
Without the participation of people with MS, it would be impossible to develop new and better therapies and other interventions.

E-Based Physical Exercise in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis and Comorbidity
Background: Physical exercise (PE) improves symptoms and quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Comorbidity is prevalent among pwMS and may contribute to disease progression. Integrating and sustaining PE is challenging and E-based PE solutions have been proposed as a tool to support the integration of PE into daily life. Aims: To assess the effect of e-based PE in addition to usual care in pwMS on clinical outcome and the levels of inflammatory, metabolic, and neurodegenerative mediators. Furthermore, to determine whether PE plays a role in the modification of comorbidities with a focus on vascular comorbidity...

Effectiveness of a Digital Health Application for Multiple Sclerosis (Levidex)
The trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel digital health application (levidex), which was designed to increase quality of life in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Therefore, 470 people with MS will be recruited and randomized to two groups: (1) an intervention group that will receive access to levidex in addition to treatment as usual (TAU) (n = 235) and (2) a control group receiving an overview of relevant brochures from the Deutsche Multiple Sklerose Gesellschaft (German Multiple Sclerosis Society) on the topic of lifestyle in MS in addition to TAU (n = 235).The primary outcome measure is the total score on the...

Effectiveness of Exergaming in Adittion to Conventional Treatment for Physical Therapy in People With Multiple Sclerosis
The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two different exergaming systems in addition to conventional treatment on physical functional capacity, balance, muscle strength, spasticity in lower limbs and quality of life compared to an isolated conventional intervention in patients with multiple sclerosis. The secondary aim will be to compare the differences between both exergaming groups.

Effectiveness of Telerehabilitation Interventions in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating, neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system of unknown etiology. The most common clinical signs and symptoms are motor dysfunction, fatigue, spasticity, impaired mobility, cognitive impairment, chronic pain, depression, decreased quality of life, and bladder and bowel dysfunction. 66% of people with MS have impaired upper extremity function. As a result of the deterioration in upper extremity function, the performance of many daily living activities affects performance. As a result of this influence, there is a decrease in the functional independence of people, ...

Effectiveness of TTNS in MS Patients With Lower Urinary Track Symptoms
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized with demyelinated plaques affecting subcortical, brain stem, and spinal cord nerve fibers. During the course of the disease, with the affection myelinated nerve tracks, lower urinary track symptoms may occur. 50-90% of the MS patients experience lower urinary track symptoms (LUTS) such as urinary incontinence, urgency, nocturia and/or urinary frequency during the at one point of their life. Aim of this study is to determine the effects of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) on symptoms and quality of life in...

Effect of Bio-electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy on Erectile Dysfunction in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. There are potential impacts on neurological functions, including sensory and autonomic functions. The Primary observed in males with MS is erectile dysfunction (ED), which substantially impacts the quality of life. There is increasing literature on electromagnetic fields' biological and clinical effects, particularly on ED.

Effect of Cooling on Balance Performance in Multiple Sclerosis
The goal of this observational study to examine the effects of cooling on balance in persons with Multiple Sclerosis. Persons with Multiple Sclerosis frequently have problems with balance leading to falls and related injuries, as well as avoidance of activities that may challenge balance. Persons with Multiple Sclerosis are also well known to experience worsening of their symptoms when they become too warm, a condition known as thermosensitivity. This suggests that heat may worsen balance and increase falls risk in persons with Multiple Sclerosis. In this study we are examining the effects of wearing a cooling vest on balance...
