- W2074446163 abstract "Background and objective To examine whether clinically benign multiple sclerosis patients (BMS) show similar losses of their global N-acetylaspartate (NAA) neuronal marker relative to more clinically disabled patients of similar disease duration. Methods The whole-brain NAA concentration (WBNAA) was acquired with whole-head non-localizing proton MR spectroscopy. Fractional brain parenchymal volume (fBPV), T2 and T1 lesion loads, were obtained from the MRI in: (i) 24 BMS patients: 23.1 ± 7.2 years disease duration, median Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score of 2.0 (range: 0–3); (ii) 26 non-benign MS patients (non-BMS), 24.5 ± 7.4 years disease duration, median EDSS of 4.0 (range: 3.5–6.5); (iii) 15 healthy controls. Results Controls’ 12.4 ± 2.3 mM WBNAA was significantly higher than the BMS's and non-BMS's 10.5 ± 2.4 and 9.9 ± 2.1 mM (both p < 0.02), but the difference between the patients’ groups was not (p > 0.4). Likewise, the controls’ 81.2 ± 4.5% fBPV exceeded the BMS and non-BMS's 77.0 ± 5.8% and 76.3 ± 8.6% (p < 0.03), which were also not different from one another (p > 0.7). BMS patients’ T1-hypointense lesion load, 2.1 ± 2.2 cm3, was not significantly different than the non-BMS's 4.1 ± 5.4 cm3 (p > 0.08) and T2-hyperintense loads: 6.0 ± 5.7 cm3 and 8.7 ± 7.8 cm3, were also not different (p > 0.1). Conclusions WBNAA differentiates normal controls from MS patients but does not distinguish BMS from more disabled MS patients of similar disease duration. Nevertheless, all MS patients who remain RR for 15+ years suffered WBNAA loss similar to the average RR MS population at fourfold shorter disease duration suggesting relative global neuronal sparing or leveling-off of the neurodegeneration rate." @default.
