Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic criteria for primary progressive multiple sclerosis: a position paper.
Alan J. Thompson,Xavier Montalban,Frederik Barkhof,Bruno Brochet,Massimo Filippi,David Miller,Chris H. Polman,Valerie L. Stevenson,W. I. McDonald +8 more
TL;DR: New diagnostic criteria developed by a group of investigators on the basis of a review of their considerable experience with primary progressive multiple sclerosis require prospective validation in a cohort of newly diagnosed patients and by postmortem examination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interferon β-1a in primary progressive MS: An exploratory, randomized, controlled trial
TL;DR: This study has demonstrated that interferon β-1a 30 μg was well tolerated, identified useful outcome measures, but showed no efficacy on the primary outcome measure or on most of the secondary outcome measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spinal cord atrophy and disability in MS A longitudinal study
Valerie L. Stevenson,S M Leary,N. A. Losseff,Geoffrey J. M. Parker,Gareth J. Barker,Y. Husmani,DH Miller,Alan J. Thompson +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated, for the first time, that it is possible to measure changes in cord cross-sectional area over time, and the serial measurement of spinal cord atrophy may make an important contribution to the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy, especially in primary progressive disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive function in primary progressive and transitional progressive multiple sclerosis: a controlled study with MRI correlates.
S. J. Camp,Valerie L. Stevenson,Alan J. Thompson,David Miller,C. Borras,S. Auriacombe,Bruno Brochet,Monica Falautano,Massimo Filippi,L. Hérissé-Dulo,Xavier Montalban,E. Parrcira,Chris H. Polman,J. De Sa,Dawn Langdon +14 more
TL;DR: Cognitive dysfunction in PP and TP multiple sclerosis has a complex and multifactorial aetiology, which is not adequately explained by pathology as demonstrated on conventional MRI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive cerebral atrophy in MS: A serial study using registered, volumetric MRI
Nick C. Fox,Richard Jenkins,S M Leary,Valerie L. Stevenson,Nicola Losseff,William R. Crum,Richard J. Harvey,Martin N. Rossor,Donald Miller,Andrew J. Thompson +9 more
TL;DR: Registration-based measurements are sensitive and reproducible, allowing progressive atrophy to be detected within 1 year and may have potential as a marker of progression in monitoring therapeutic trials.
