Personalized brain stimulation for emotional disorders in MS and NMOSD
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests if a gentle brain stimulation technique can help with anxiety in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). It uses a mild electrical current through the scalp to regulate mood, and the treatment is customized to each person.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD)
- You have significant anxiety (a score above 14 on a standard anxiety test)
- You have been on the same immune-suppressing medication for at least one month
- You are able to walk without help (score 6 or less on a disability scale)

This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation technique (transcranial electrical stimulation) to see if it can reduce chronic pain in people with conditions like multiple sclerosis or neuromyelitis optica. It aims to offer a new, drug-free option for pain relief without major side effects.
This trial tests a personalized form of electrical brain stimulation to improve cognitive problems like memory and thinking speed in people with conditions that damage the protective coating around nerves. It aims to see if this treatment can help with day-to-day thinking challenges.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporal interference to help treat psychiatric conditions. Researchers will use MRI scanning and specialized stimulation equipment to see if this approach is safe and helpful.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp (called tDCS) can help people with multiple sclerosis. It involves brain stimulation sessions and MRI scans to see if the treatment improves symptoms or brain function.
