Abnormal functional connectivity of thalamic sub-regions contributes to fatigue in multiple sclerosis.
Milagros Hidalgo de la Cruz,Alessandro d’Ambrosio,Paola Valsasina,Elisabetta Pagani,Bruno Colombo,Mariaemma Rodegher,Andrea Falini,Giancarlo Comi,Massimo Filippi,Maria A. Rocca +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated sub-regional thalamic resting-state functional connectivity (RS) abnormalities in multiple sclerosis and their correlation with fatigue and its subcomponents.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of imprecise repositioning on lesion volume measurements in patients with multiple sclerosis
Massimo Filippi,N Marcianò,Ruggero Capra,Maria A. Rocca,F. Prandini,Roberto Gasparotti,Mark A. Horsfield,G. Comi +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the effect ofRepositioning errors of the order of those that can be encountered in the daily life situation of clinical trials affects significantly lesion load measurements in MS and that the combined use of thinner slices and more accurate repositioning techniques can markedly improve the reproducibility of such measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropsychological rehabilitation in adult multiple sclerosis.
Flavia Mattioli,Chiara Stampatori,Fabio Bellomi,Ruggero Capra,Maria A. Rocca,Massimo Filippi +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that intensive and specific training of attention, information processing and executive functions is significantly effective in ameliorating both neuropsychological treated functions and in reducing depression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term disability progression in primary progressive multiple sclerosis: a 15-year study.
Maria A. Rocca,Maria Pia Sormani,Marco Rovaris,Domenico Caputo,Angelo Ghezzi,Enrico Montanari,Antonio Bertolotto,Alice Laroni,Roberto Bergamaschi,Vittorio Martinelli,Giancarlo Comi,Massimo Filippi +11 more
TL;DR: Integration of clinical and imaging measures allows identification of primary progressive multiple sclerosis patients at risk of long-term disease progression 4 years earlier than when using clinical assessment alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional MR Imaging in Multiple Sclerosis
Massimo Filippi,Maria A. Rocca +1 more
TL;DR: A variable effectiveness of reparative and recovery mechanisms following tissue damage is among the factors that might contribute to explaining resolution of symptoms and maintenance of a normal level of function in patients who have multiple sclerosis.
