Frailty and muscle health in people with multiple sclerosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study compares physical fitness, frailty, and a blood protein called irisin in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and healthy volunteers. It aims to understand how MS affects muscle and physical function, which could help guide future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to understand what factors are linked to muscle loss, which could help improve care.
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.
This study looks at how common muscle loss and weakness are in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) at different stages of the disease. It also checks how muscle loss relates to everyday function. The goal is to better understand these issues to improve care.
This trial tests how exercise affects muscle health in people aged 60 or older with multiple sclerosis. It may help you understand if a structured exercise program can improve your strength and mobility.
This study looks at two proteins in the blood, myostatin and irisin, which may be linked to bone strength and muscle strength in women after menopause. It aims to see if these proteins can help predict bone health and muscle function, which could lead to better ways to prevent fractures and falls.
This study looks at the link between muscle health and brain function in people with different neurological conditions or healthy aging. It may help researchers understand how muscle changes relate to memory, movement, and thinking problems.
