First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study looked at how the COVID-19 pandemic changed the way multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses were reported and managed. Researchers compared 51 patients who had a relapse during the first wave of the pandemic (April-June 2020) to those who had a relapse during the same months in 2019. The goal was to see if the pandemic affected treatment decisions, such as use of steroids or disease-modifying drugs.
