This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This study looks at how aging and multiple sclerosis (MS) affect muscle and heart health in people over 60. Researchers will compare older adults with MS to those without MS, and test how their bodies respond to a 4-month exercise program. The goal is to understand differences in muscle strength and fitness, not to provide a treatment.
