MS Patients' breathing tied to muscle health in new study
NCT ID NCT07152015
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 40 people with multiple sclerosis to see if muscle loss (sarcopenia) is linked to weaker breathing muscles and lung function. Participants did breathing tests and grip strength measurements in a single session. The goal was to understand the connection, not to test a treatment.
