Multiple sclerosis, thinking, sleep, and tiredness study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how multiple sclerosis (MS) affects your thinking, sleep, and tiredness. It compares people with MS who have at least mild fatigue to people without MS who also have sleep problems, to understand these issues better.

This study is investigating fatigue using digital outcomes in people with multiple sclerosis, long COVID, and healthy volunteers. Participants must own a smartphone, be fluent in German or English, and be willing to provide informed consent. Exclusion criteria include having taken certain medications recently, being pregnant or lactating, or having additional health conditions that could affect fatigue or the autonomic nervous system.
This study will test different parts of cognitive behavioral therapy to see which ones help with fatigue in people with multiple sclerosis. You will participate in sessions that may involve changing thoughts about fatigue, scheduling activities, or addressing related emotions like depression or anxiety.
This study looks at whether better sleep helps people with multiple sclerosis (MS) think more clearly and stay more physically active. Researchers will measure your sleep quality and test your memory and everyday abilities to see if they're connected.
