Breathing muscle strength and endurance in multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study measures how strong and how long your breathing muscles can work. It will help doctors better understand how multiple sclerosis affects breathing and find healthy cut-off values to guide therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You can speak, read, and understand Turkish well enough to follow instructions.
- You have not had an MS relapse (worsening of symptoms) in the past 3 months and your condition has been stable for the last month.
- You have not taken part in a breathing exercise or respiratory rehab program in the past 6 months.
- You do not have any other neurological or autoimmune conditions, and no chronic heart or lung disease that might affect breathing.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you can complete the testing procedures.

This study tests whether a special breathing muscle training can help improve your breathing and overall function if you have relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. It involves exercises that strengthen the muscles you use to breathe, which might support your daily activities.
This study looks at how MS affects the strength of your breathing muscles and leg muscles. If you join, you will have tests to measure your muscle strength, walking ability, and fatigue. This may help doctors understand how to better treat MS-related weakness.
This study tests whether training the muscles used for breathing can help people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to see if this training improves breathing and overall health.
This study looks at how aerobic fitness relates to balance and the ability to do two things at once (dual-tasking) in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help improve future exercise programs for MS.
This study looks at breathing, chest and belly movement, and exercise ability in people with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy or Spinal Muscular Atrophy, as well as healthy people. The goal is to compare these functions to help understand how these diseases affect the body.
This study checks whether measurements of your breathing muscle (the diaphragm) can act as a useful “biomarker” to track lung disease. You might be asked to do breathing tests and follow study instructions, and your results may help researchers better monitor COPD, asthma, fibrosis, or pulmonary hypertension.
