Spine Position, Movement, and Balance in Multiple Sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study examines how multiple sclerosis affects your spine alignment, flexibility, and balance. Understanding these changes may help develop better physical therapies and support for people living with MS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS)—the most common type where symptoms come and go
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- Your MS disability level is mild to moderate (EDSS score 0.5–4.5, meaning you can walk but may have some limitations)
- Your cognitive function is near normal (Mini-Mental State score of 24 or higher)
- You have not received corticosteroid injections or infusions in the past 4 weeks
- You have not had surgery on your lower back, spine, hips, or belly area
