Exercise study for multiple sclerosis with high blood pressure
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests if exercise can improve blood vessel health and daily function in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) who also have high blood pressure. It may help you move better and feel better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and your disability level is moderate (EDSS 4–6.5).
- You have high blood pressure (systolic over 120 or diastolic over 80).
- You exercise less than 60 minutes per week.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 40.
- You can walk (not wheelchair-bound) and have not had an MS relapse in the last 30 days.
- You are on stable medications.

This study tests a multimodal exercise program for people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to improve mobility, strength, and overall well-being through guided exercises you can do at home.
This trial tests a guided exercise program for people with advanced multiple sclerosis to see if it improves their daily life. You may benefit from getting structured, safe physical activity to help with mobility and well-being.
This trial tests whether a special exercise method that briefly limits blood flow to the legs can improve strength and walking ability in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). If you have walking limitations, it may help you build fitness with less heavy resistance training—but you must be able to safely use a pressure cuff during testing.
This study is testing whether a combination of blood pressure medication and a supervised exercise program can improve the health of your blood vessels. It's for people with mild to moderate high blood pressure who are not already on medication.
This study tests a type of arm exercise that uses a blood pressure cuff to limit blood flow, aiming to improve arm function in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help if you have some arm weakness but no recent relapses or blood clotting issues.
This trial tests whether a program of aerobic and resistance exercise can improve immune function in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). If you have RRMS and are not very physically active, this study may help you understand how exercise affects your MS.
