Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Cognitive measures • Neuropsychological test scores. Neurological measures • Clinical scales. Blood serum measures • (Changes in) blood biomarkers as defined in the MS biobank protocol. Neuro-ophthalmological measures • (Changes in) retinal layer integrity and eye movements. Questionnaires • (Changes in) mood and anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbances, quality of life, coping style, personality, subjective motor function and cognitive complaints, work participation, stress, resilience. Structural brain measures • (Changes in) white and grey matter tissue integrity and volume, as well as lesions. Functional brain measures • (Changes in) functional activation as well as connectivity and network changes, measured with fMRI and MEG.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
We will identify (novel, clinical) measures and combinations of measures (e.g. grey matter atrophy patterns, serum NfL levels, dynamic network changes, structural network topology) to better understand the mechanism underlying progression, as well as (combinations of) measures that are most predictive for clinical progression.
