Abstract
BACKGROUND Comorbidities, particularly vascular comorbidities, have been shown to exacerbate the progression of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of conditions including abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, atherogenic dyslipidemia, and vascular dysfunction, which contribute to vascular morbidity and chronic inflammation. OBJECTIVE To describe the characteristics of MetS in a cohort of MS patients and evaluate its relationship with the MS phenotype. METHODS A monocentric cohort study was conducted on MS patients, collecting demographic, clinical, radiological, and therapeutic data, as well as metabolic data including waist circumference, blood pressure, serum triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and fasting blood glucose. RESULTS Among the 84 patients included in the study, 27% were diagnosed with MetS. MetS was found to be associated with secondary progressive MS (SPMS). Patients with SPMS had a higher prevalence of MetS compared to those with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), even after adjusting for disease duration. While MetS was associated with Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) progression in the 3-year period according to univariate analysis, it did not show a significant association with disease activity. CONCLUSION This study provides evidence supporting the connection between MetS and the progression of disability in MS, independent of disease relapse activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Impaired motor function is a major cause of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS), involving various neuroplasticity processes typically assessed by neuroimaging. This study aimed to determine whether navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) could also provide biomarkers of motor cortex plasticity in patients with MS (pwMS). METHODS nTMS motor mapping was performed for hand and leg muscles bilaterally. nTMS variables included the amplitude and latency of motor evoked potentials (MEPs), corticospinal excitability measures, and the size of cortical motor maps (CMMs). Clinical assessment included disability (Expanded Disability Status Scale, EDSS), strength (MRC scale, pinch and grip), and dexterity (9-hole Pegboard Test). RESULTS nTMS motor mapping was performed in 68 pwMS. PwMS with high disability (EDSS ≥ 3) had enlarged CMMs with less dense distribution of MEPs and various MEP parameter changes compared to pwMS with low disability (EDSS < 3). Patients with progressive MS had also various MEP parameter changes compared to pwMS with relapsing remitting form. MRC score correlated positively with MEP amplitude and negatively with MEP latency, pinch strength correlated negatively with CMM volume and dexterity with MEP latency. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to perform 4-limb cortical motor mapping in pwMS using a dedicated nTMS procedure. By quantifying the cortical surface representation of a given muscle and the variability of MEP within this representation, nTMS can provide new biomarkers of motor function impairment in pwMS. Our study opens perspectives for the use of nTMS as an objective method for assessing pwMS disability in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Motor preparation and execution can be impaired in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). These neural processes can be assessed using electroencephalography (EEG). During a self-paced movement, EEG signal amplitude decreases before movement (event-related desynchronization, ERD) and increases after movement (event-related synchronization, ERS). OBJECTIVE To reappraise ERD/ERS changes in pwMS compared to healthy controls (HC). METHODS This single-center study included 13 pwMS and 10 sex/age-matched HC. 60-channel EEG was recorded during two self-paced movements of the right hand: a simple index finger extension task and a more complex finger tapping task. Clinical variables included MS type, sex, age, disease duration, disability, grip strength, fatigue and attentional performance. EEG variables included ERD and ERS onset latency, duration, and amplitude determined using two methods of signal analyses (based on visual or automated determination) in the alpha and beta frequency bands in five cortical regions: right and left frontocentral and centroparietal regions and a midline region. Neuroimaging variables included the volumes of four deep brain structures (thalamus, putamen, pallidum and caudate nucleus) and the relative lesion load. RESULTS ERD/ERS changes in pwMS compared to HC were observed only in the beta band. In pwMS, beta-ERD had a delayed onset in the midline and right parietocentral regions and a shortened duration or increased amplitude in the parietocentral region; beta-ERS had a shorter duration, delayed onset, or reduced amplitude in the left parieto/frontocentral region. In addition, pwMS with a more delayed beta-ERD in the midline region had less impaired executive functions but increased caudate nuclei volume, while pwMS with a more delayed beta-ERS in the parietocentral region contralateral to the movement had less fatigue but increased thalami volume. CONCLUSION This study confirms an alteration of movement preparation and execution in pwMS, mainly characterized by a delayed cortical activation (ERD) and a delayed and reduced post-movement inhibition (ERS) in the beta band. Compensatory mechanisms could be involved in these changes, associating more preserved clinical performance and overactivation of deep brain structures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Peripheral neuropathy is a frequent complication of brentuximab vedotin (BV), used in CD30+ lymphoma treatment. Classic BV-induced neuropathy (BV-CN) is a mild distal sensory axonal polyneuropathy. Severe BV-induced inflammatory neuropathies (BV-IN) have been described. BV-IN contribute to lymphoma-associated morbidity but might be immunotherapy-responsive. Our primary objective was to evaluate the rate of BV-IN. Our secondary objectives were to determine risk factors and warning signs. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study on all patients treated with BV at our center between April 2014 and September 2021. Clinical, biological, and electrophysiological data were collected. BV-induced neuropathy was defined as the occurrence of neuropathy up to 3 months after BV discontinuation. BV-IN was defined with criteria adapted from European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society 2021 electrodiagnostic criteria for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. Other neuropathies were classified as BV-CN. RESULTS Among 83 patients, 41 (49%) developed neuropathy: 35 BV-CN and 6 BV-IN. Thus, the rate of BV-IN was 7.2%. Compared to patients with BV-CN, no predisposing factor was identified. However, patients with BV-IN more frequently presented muscle weakness (67% vs. 5.7%, p < 0.05), gait disorders (83% vs. 20%, p < 0.05), or acute or subacute onset (67% vs. 14%, p < 0.05). BV-IN was frequently more severe (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade ≥3; 50% vs. 0%, p < 0.05). Four patients were treated with immunotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Brentuximab vedotin-induced neuropathy is an overlooked complication. Based on four easily identifiable "red flags", we provide an algorithm to help non-neurologist physicians that care for BV-treated patients to detect BV-IN. The aim of the algorithm is to decrease the diagnostic and management delay of this disabling neuropathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Immune-mediated small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is increasingly recognized. Acute-onset SFN (AOSFN) remains poorly described. Herein, we report a series of AOSFN cases in which immune origins are debatable. METHODS We included consecutive patients with probable or definite AOSFN. Diagnosis of SFN was based on the NEURODIAB criteria. Acute onset was considered when the maximum intensity and extension of both symptoms and signs were reached within 28 days. We performed the following investigations: clinical examination, neurophysiologic assessment encompassing a nerve conduction study to rule out large fiber neuropathy, laser-evoked potentials (LEPs), warm detection thresholds (WDTs), electrochemical skin conductance (ESC), epidermal nerve fiber density (ENF), and patient serum reactivity against mouse sciatic nerve teased fibers, mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sections, and cultured DRG. The serum reactivity of healthy subjects (n = 10) and diseased controls (n = 12) was also analyzed. Data on baseline characteristics, biological investigations, and disease course were collected. RESULTS Twenty patients presenting AOSFN were identified (60% women; median age: 44.2 years [interquartile range: 35.7-56.2]). SFN was definite in 18 patients (90%) and probable in 2 patients. A precipitating event was present in 16 patients (80%). The median duration of the progression phase was 14 days [5-28]. Pain was present in 17 patients (85%). Twelve patients (60%) reported autonomic involvement. The clinical pattern was predominantly non-length-dependent (85%). Diagnosis was confirmed by abnormal LEPs (60%), ENF (55%), WDT (39%), or ESC (31%). CSF analysis was normal in 5 of 5 patients. Antifibroblast growth factor 3 antibodies were positive in 4 of 18 patients (22%) and anticontactin-associated protein-2 antibodies in one patient. In vitro studies showed IgG immunoreactivity against nerve tissue in 14 patients (70%), but not in healthy subjects or diseased controls. Patient serum antibodies bound to unmyelinated fibers, Schwann cells, juxtaparanodes, paranodes, or DRG. Patients' condition improved after a short course of oral corticosteroids (3/3). Thirteen patients (65%) showed partial or complete recovery. Others displayed relapses or a chronic course. DISCUSSION AOSFN primarily presents as an acute, non-length-dependent, symmetric painful neuropathy with a variable disease course. An immune-mediated origin has been suggested based on in vitro immunohistochemical studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To perform posturographic measurements with eyes open or closed using floor coverings with different textured surfaces to study postural control in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Static posturographic recordings were performed with eyes open and eyes closed on a forceplate with no covering (control condition) or covered by a textured mat with small pimples (height 2 mm) or large pimples (height 7 mm). Several posturographic variables were measured, focusing on displacements of the center of pressure (CoP) including the average velocity (Vav), the total length (L) of all displacements, and the surface (S) of the confidence ellipse. The recordings made with the textured mats were compared to the control condition with eyes open or closed. Then, the differences between the recordings made with large vs. small pimples on the one hand, and with eyes closed vs. open were calculated to assess the impact of pimple height or eye closure on posturographic measurements. Clinical assessment was based on the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and its functional system (FS) subscores, the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS), the Unipodal Stance test (UST), and the Timed Up-and-Go test (TUG). RESULTS Forty-six MS patients (mean EDSS score: 3.6) completed the study. Several posturographic variables, including Vav and L, deteriorated when measured on a textured mat, especially with large pimples and in eyes open condition. In contrast, no difference was found with small pimples and eyes closed, as compared to the control condition (no covering). The deleterious impact of pimple height on posturography correlated positively with the alteration of balance and gait clinically assessed by the UST and the TUG, and also with the MFIS physical and cerebral EDSS-FS subscores, and negatively with the cerebellar and brainstem subscores. On the other hand, the impact of eye closure on posturography was negatively correlated with the visual EDSS-FS subscore. DISCUSSION Static posturographic measurements made with different textured surfaces and visual conditions can be considered as a sensitive tool to measure "proprioceptive reserves". Actually, when cerebellar, brainstem, or visual functions are impaired, the resources of the sensory (proprioceptive) system, if preserved, can be recruited at a higher level and compensate for dysfunctions of other postural controls to maintain a satisfactory balance. In addition, this procedure of static posturographic examination can provide objective measurements correlated with clinical testing of balance and gait and could usefully complement EDSS scoring to assess disability affecting postural control and the risk of falling in MS patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurofilament light chain (NfL) serum levels are useful to define disease activity in different neurologic conditions. These biomarkers are increased in patients with aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD (AQP4+NMOSD) during clinical attacks suggesting a concomitant axonal and glial damage. However, there are contradictory results in double seronegative NMOSD (DS-NMOSD). The aim of this study was to characterize the neuronal, axonal, and glial damage of DS-NMOSD in comparison with AQP4+NMOSD. METHODS Patients with DS-NMOSD (i.e., for AQP4 and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies-MOG-Abs) and age-matched AQP4+NMOSD diagnosed according to the latest diagnostic criteria and with available serum samples obtained within 3 months from onset/relapse were retrospectively enrolled from 14 international centers. Clinical and radiologic data were collected. Serum NfL, GFAP, tau, and UCH-L1 levels were determined using an ultrasensitive paramagnetic bead-based ELISA (SIMOA). Statistical analysis was performed using nonparametric tests and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS We included 25 patients with AQP4+NMOSD and 26 with DS-NMOSD. The median age at disease onset (p = 0.611) and female sex predominance (p = 0.072) were similar in the 2 groups. The most common syndromes at sampling in both AQP4+NMOSD and DS-NMOSD were myelitis (56% vs 38.5%) and optic neuritis (34.6% vs 32%), with no statistical differences (p = 0.716). Median EDSS at sampling was 3.2 (interquartile range [IQR] 2-7.7) in the AQP4+NMOSD group and 4 (IQR [3-6]) in the DS-NMOSD group (p = 0.974). Serum GFAP, tau, and UCH-L1 levels were higher in patients with AQP4+NMOSD compared with those with DS-NMOSD (median 308.3 vs 103.4 pg/mL p = 0.001; median 1.2 vs 0.5 pg/mL, p = 0.001; and median 61.4 vs 35 pg/mL, p = 0.006, respectively). The ROC curve analysis showed that GFAP, tau, and UCH-L1, but not NfL, values were able to discriminate between AQP4+ and DS-NMOSD (area under the curve (AUC) tau: 0.782, p = 0.001, AUC GFAP: 0.762, p = 0.001, AUC UCH-L1: 0.723, p = 0.006). NfL levels were associated with EDSS at nadir only in patients with AQP4+NMOSD. DISCUSSION Serum GFAP, tau, and UCH-L1 levels discriminate between AQP4+NMOSD and DS-NMOSD. The different biomarker profile of AQP4+NMOSD vs DS-NMOSD suggests heterogeneity of diseases within the latter category and provides useful data to improve our understanding of this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We proposed to investigate high-dose pharmaceutical-grade biotin in a population of demyelinating neuropathies of different aetiologies, as a proof-of-concept. METHODS Phase IIb open label, uncontrolled, single center, pilot study in 15 patients (three groups of five patients) with chronic demyelinating peripheral neuropathy, i.e. chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein neuropathy and Charcot-Marie-Tooth 1a or 1b. The investigational product was high-dose pharmaceutical-grade biotin (100 mg taken orally three times a day over a maximum of 52 weeks. The primary endpoint was a 10% relative improvement in 2 of the following 4 electrophysiological variables: motor nerve conduction velocity, distal motor latency, F wave latency, duration of the compound muscle action potential. The secondary endpoints included Overall Neuropathy Limitations Scale (ONLS) score, Medical Research Council (MRC) sum score, Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) sensory sum score, 10-m walk test, 6-min walk test, posturography parameters, and nerve excitability variables. RESULTS The primary endpoint was reached in one patient. In the full population analysis, some secondary endpoints parameters improved: MRC score, INCAT sensory sum score, 6-min walk distance, strength-duration time constant, and rheobase. There was a positive correlation between the improvement in the 6-min walk distance and the strength-duration time constant. Regarding the safety results, 42 adverse events occurred, of which three were of severe intensity but none was considered as related to the investigational product. CONCLUSIONS Even if the primary endpoint was not met, administration of high-dose pharmaceutical-grade biotin led to an improvement in various sensory and motor parameters, gait abilities, and nerve excitability parameters. The tolerance of the treatment was satisfactory. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02967679; date 2016/12/05.

Abstract
Plantar skin sensitivity contributes to the regulation of postural control and, therefore, changing the characteristics of the plantar support surface can modify this control. This study aimed at assessing the impact of five different floor coverings on the orthostatic balance in 48 healthy subjects. Static posturography was performed with eyes open or closed on a platform in a control condition (no covering) and with five different covering surfaces: foam, silicone, ethyl vinyl acetate, and two textured mats with small (height 2 mm) or large pimples (7 mm). The average velocity of center of pressure (CoP) displacement was the primary endpoint measure and ten other posturographic variables were assessed. Comfort and pain produced by the covering were also scored. In eyes open condition, the average velocity of CoP displacement was increased when subjects stood on the foam mat, the silicone mat, and especially the textured mat with large pimples. Several other posturographic variables showed significant changes with different types of floor coverings with eyes open. These changes were not correlated to the comfort or pain scores associated with the different surfaces. In contrast, no difference was observed compared to the control condition (no covering) with eyes closed. This study shows that adding smooth or textured floor covering can alter balance in eyes open condition. In eyes closed condition, although more disturbing for balance, healthy subjects achieved better postural adaptation, probably by mobilizing more of their proprioceptive resources. This posturographic examination procedure could, therefore, be used to assess "proprioceptive reserve" capacities in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate compliance with the available recommendations, we assessed the current clinical practice of imaging in the evaluation of multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS An online questionnaire was emailed to all members and affiliates. Information was gathered on applied MR imaging protocols, gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA) use and image analysis. We compared the survey results with the Magnetic Resonance Imaging in MS (MAGNIMS) recommendations considered as the reference standard. RESULTS A total of 428 entries were received from 44 countries. Of these, 82% of responders were neuroradiologists. 55% performed more than ten scans per week for MS imaging. The systematic use of 3 T is rare (18%). Over 90% follow specific protocol recommendations with 3D FLAIR, T2-weighted and DWI being the most frequently used sequences. Over 50% use SWI at initial diagnosis and 3D gradient-echo T1-weighted imaging is the most used MRI sequence for pre- and post-contrast imaging. Mismatches with recommendations were identified including the use of only one sagittal T2-weighted sequence for spinal cord imaging, the systematic use of GBCA at follow-up (over 30% of institutions), a delay time shorter than 5 min after GBCA administration (25%) and an inadequate follow-up duration in pediatric acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (80%). There is scarce use of automated software to compare images or to assess atrophy (13% and 7%). The proportions do not differ significantly between academic and non-academic institutions. CONCLUSIONS While current practice in MS imaging is rather homogeneous across Europe, our survey suggests that recommendations are only partially followed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Hurdles were identified, mainly in the areas of GBCA use, spinal cord imaging, underuse of specific MRI sequences and monitoring strategies. This work will help radiologists to identify the mismatches between their own practices and the recommendations and act upon them. KEY POINTS • While current practice in MS imaging is rather homogeneous across Europe, our survey suggests that available recommendations are only partially followed. • Several hurdles have been identified through the survey that mainly lies in the areas of GBCA use, spinal cord imaging, underuse of specific MRI sequences and monitoring strategies.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare a highly-accelerated double inversion recovery (fast-DIR) sequence using a recent parallel imaging technique (CAIPIRINHA) with a conventional DIR (conv-DIR) sequence for image quality and the detection of juxtacortical and infratentorial multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 38 patients with MS who underwent brain MRI at 3 T between 2020 and 2021 were included. There were 27 women and 12 men with a mean age of 40 ± 12.8 (standard deviation) years (range: 20-59 years). All patients underwent conv-DIR sequence and fast-DIR sequence. Fast-DIR was obtained with a T2-preparation module to improve contrast and an iterative denoising algorithm to compensate noise enhancement. Two blinded readers reported the number of juxtacortical and infratentorial MS lesions for fast-DIR and conv-DIR, confirmed by further consensus reading that was used as the standard of reference. Image quality and contrast were evaluated for fast-DIR and conv-DIR sequences. Comparisons between fast-DIR and conv-DIR sequences were performed using Wilcoxon test and Lin concordance correlation coefficient. RESULTS Thirty-eight patients were analyzed. Fast-DIR imaging allowed detection of 289 juxtacortical lesions vs. 238 with conv-DIR, corresponding to a significant improved detection rate with fast-DIR (P < 0.001). Conversely, 117 infratentorial lesions were detected with conv-DIR sequence vs. 80 with fast-DIR sequence (P < 0.001). Inter-observer agreement for lesion detection with fast-DIR and conv-DIR was very high (Lin concordance correlation coefficient ranging between 0.86 and 0.96). CONCLUSION Fast-DIR improves the detection of juxtacortical MS lesions, but is limited for the detection of infratentorial MS lesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The precise location of multiple sclerosis (MS) cortical lesions can be very challenging at 3 T, yet distinguishing them from subcortical lesions is essential for the diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. Compressed sensing-accelerated fluid and white matter suppression imaging (CS-FLAWS) is a new magnetic resonance imaging sequence derived from magnetization-prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient echo with promising features for the detection and classification of MS lesions. The objective of this study was to compare the diagnostic performances of CS-FLAWS (evaluated imaging) and phase sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR; reference imaging) for classification of cortical lesions (primary objective) and infratentorial lesions (secondary objective) in MS, in combination with 3-dimensional (3D) double inversion recovery (DIR). MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective 3 T scans (MS first diagnosis or follow-up) acquired between March and August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All underwent 3D CS-FLAWS, axial 2D PSIR, and 3D DIR. Double-blinded reading sessions exclusively in axial plane and final consensual reading were performed to assess the number of cortical and infratentorial lesions. Wilcoxon test was used to compare the 2 imaging datasets (FLAWS + DIR and PSIR + DIR), and intraobserver and interobserver agreement was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient. RESULTS Forty-two patients were analyzed (38 with relapsing-remitting MS, 29 women, 42.7 ± 12.6 years old). Compressed sensing-accelerated FLAWS allowed the identification of 263 cortical lesions versus 251 with PSIR ( P = 0.74) and 123 infratentorial lesions versus 109 with PSIR ( P = 0.63), corresponding to a nonsignificant difference between the 2 sequences. Compressed sensing-accelerated FLAWS exhibited fewer false-negative findings than PSIR either for cortical lesions (1 vs 13; P < 0.01) or infratentorial lesions (1 vs 15; P < 0.01). No false-positive findings were found with any of the 2 sequences. Diagnostic confidence was high for each contrast. CONCLUSION Three-dimensional CS-FLAWS is as accurate as 2D PSIR imaging for classification of cortical and infratentorial MS lesions, with fewer false-negative findings, opening the way to a reliable full brain MS exploration in a clinically acceptable duration (5 minutes 15 seconds).

Abstract
The specialized nurse in MS is a new profession practiced in MS clinics and outpatients specialized coordination structures. She is part of a specialized multi-professional team. The nurse must master a broad knowledge of the disease and the treatments. Have skills in therapeutic education, communication and coordination. She has a detailed knowledge of the resources of the care offer. The MS nurse thus participates in the assessment of the patient's needs for the implementation of a personalized care plan combining response to medical, paramedical, psychological and social needs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Telemedicine (TM) contributes to bridge the gap between healthcare facilities and patients' homes with neuromuscular disease (NMD) because of mobility issues. However, its deployment is limited due to difficulties evaluating subtle neurological signs such as mild weakness or sensory deficits. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted healthcare delivery worldwide, necessitating rapid measures implementation by health care providers (HCPs) to protect patients from acquiring SARS-CoV-2 while maintaining the best care and treatment. OBJECTIVES Given the challenges faced by remote healthcare assistance of NMD patients, we aim to evaluate the use of TM in NMD during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS Based on the Model for Assessment-of-Telemedicine-Applications (MAST), we conducted a survey amongst clinicians of the ERN EURO NMD (European-Reference-Network-for-Rare-Neuromuscular-Diseases). RESULTS Based on 42 responses over 76 expected ones, our results show that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased the number of HCPs using TM (from 60% to 100%). The TM types most used during the COVID-19 period are teleconsultation and consultation by phone, particularly in the context of symptoms worsening in NMD patients with COVID-19 infection. Most European HCPs were satisfied when using TM but as a complementary option to physical consultations. Many responses addressed the issue of technical aspects needing improvement, particularly for elderly patients who need caregivers' assistance for accessing the TM platform. CONCLUSIONS TM has been essential during COVID-19, but its use still presents some limitations for NMD patients with cognitive deficits or for first-time diagnosis. Thus, TM should be used as complement to, rather than substitute, for face-to-face consultations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, characterized by the accumulation of demyelinating lesions and axonal loss over its course. This study aimed to increase current knowledge of motor preparation in this condition, by assessing the two components of the Bereitschaftspotential (BP1 and BP2), also known as the readiness potential. METHODS Twelve patients with MS and ten age- and gender-matched healthy controls (HC) were included. Patients' demographic and clinical data were collected. Participants were asked to perform two different tasks, a simple index extension and a Luria sequence. BP1 and BP2 values were obtained from 18 central electroencephalography electrodes and were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Compared to HC, patients with MS showed earlier BP1 onset (i.e., longer latency) in almost all the analyzed scalp regions during index extension. This was also observed during the Luria sequence, but only in the centro-parietal regions. As for BP2 latency, no significant difference was noted between groups during either task. With regard to amplitudes, patients with MS had larger BP1 amplitudes in the right fronto-central area during index extension and greater BP1 and BP2 amplitudes in bilateral centro-parietal and left central regions during the Luria task. BP1 latency was also found to be significantly correlated with disease duration and performance on executive function tests (Trail Making Test). CONCLUSIONS This study showed, for the first time, changes in the Bereitschaftspotential in patients with MS. These data reflect prolonged movement preparation in this population and may suggest global alteration of the premotor scheme.

Abstract
BACKGROUND SARS-CoV-2 seroconversion rate after COVID-19 may be influenced by disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMO-SD). OBJECTIVE To investigate the seroprevalence and the quantity of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in a cohort of patients with MS or NMO-SD. METHODS Blood samples were collected in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 between 19 February 2020 and 26 February 2021. SARS-CoV-2 antibody positivity rates and Ig levels (anti-S IgG titre, anti-S IgA index, anti-N IgG index) were compared between DMTs groups. Multivariate logistic and linear regression models were used to estimate the influence of DMTs and other confounding variables on SARS-CoV-2 serological outcomes. RESULTS 119 patients (115 MS, 4 NMO, mean age: 43.0 years) were analysed. Overall, seroconversion rate was 80.6% within 5.0 (SD 3.4) months after infection. 20/21 (95.2%) patients without DMT and 66/77 (85.7%) patients on DMTs other than anti-CD20 had at least one SARS-CoV-2 Ig positivity, while this rate decreased to only 10/21 (47.6%) for patients on anti-CD20 (p<0.001). Being on anti-CD20 was associated with a decreased odd of positive serology (OR, 0.07 (95% CI 0.01 to 0.69), p=0.02) independently from time to COVID-19, total IgG level, age, sex and COVID-19 severity. Time between last anti-CD20 infusion and COVID-19 was longer (mean (SD), 3.7 (2.0) months) in seropositive patients compared with seronegative patients (mean (SD), 1.9 (1.5) months, p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS SARS-CoV-2 antibody response was decreased in patients with MS or NMO-SD treated with anti-CD20 therapies. Monitoring long-term risk of reinfection and specific vaccination strategies in this population may be warranted. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04568707.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Younger age, oligoclonal bands, and infratentorial and spinal cord lesions are factors associated with an increased 10-year risk of clinical conversion from radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS) to multiple sclerosis (MS). Whether disease-modifying therapy is beneficial for individuals with RIS is currently unknown. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the 2-year risk of a clinical event (onset of clinical symptoms of MS) prospectively, identify factors associated with developing an early clinical event, and simulate the sample size needed for a phase III clinical trial of individuals with RIS meeting 2009 RIS criteria. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cohort study used data on prospectively followed-up individuals with RIS identified at 1 of 26 tertiary centers for MS care in France that collect data for the Observatoire Français de la Sclérose en Plaques database. Participants were aged 10 to 80 years with 2 or more magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans after study entry and an index scan after 2000. All diagnoses were validated by an expert group, whose review included a double centralized MRI reading. Data were analyzed from July 2020 to January 2021. EXPOSURE Diagnosis of RIS. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Risk of clinical event and associated covariates at index scan were analyzed among all individuals with RIS. Time to the first clinical event was compared by covariates, and sample size estimates were modeled based on identified risk factors. RESULTS Among 372 individuals with RIS (mean [SD] age at index MRI scan, 38.6 [12.1] years), 354 individuals were included in the analysis (264 [74.6%] women). A clinical event was identified among 49 patients (13.8%) within 2 years, which was associated with an estimated risk of conversion of 19.2% (95% CI, 14.1%-24.0%). In multivariate analysis, age younger than 37 years (hazard ratio [HR], 4.04 [95% CI, 2.00-8.15]; P < .001), spinal cord lesions (HR, 5.11 [95% CI, 1.99-13.13]; P = .001), and gadolinium-enhancing lesions on index scan (HR, 2.09 [95% CI, 1.13-3.87]; P = .02) were independently associated with an increased risk of conversion to MS. Having 2 factors at the time of the index MRI scan was associated with a risk of 27.9% (95% CI, 13.5%-39.9%) of a seminal event within 2 years, increasing to 90.9% (95% CI, 41.1%-98.6%) for individuals with all 3 factors (3 risk factors vs none: HR, 23.34 [95% CI, 9.08-59.96]; P < .001). Overall, with 80% power to detect an effect size of 60% within 24 months, a total of 160 individuals with RIS were needed assuming an event rate of 20%. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This study found that age younger than age 37 years, spinal cord involvement, and gadolinium-enhancing lesions on index MRI scan were associated with earlier clinical disease and relevant to the number of enrolled patients needed to detect a potential treatment effect.

Abstract
We evaluated the effect of DMTs on Covid‐19 severity in patients with MS, with a pooled‐analysis of two large cohorts from Italy and France. The association of baseline characteristics and DMTs with Covid‐19 severity was assessed by multivariate ordinal‐logistic models and pooled by a fixed‐effect meta‐analysis. 1066 patients with MS from Italy and 721 from France were included. In the multivariate model, anti‐CD20 therapies were significantly associated (OR = 2.05, 95%CI = 1.39–3.02, p < 0.001) with Covid‐19 severity, whereas interferon indicated a decreased risk (OR = 0.42, 95%CI = 0.18–0.99, p = 0.047). This pooled‐analysis confirms an increased risk of severe Covid‐19 in patients on anti‐CD20 therapies and supports the protective role of interferon.

Abstract
The nerve plexus is susceptible to various pathological processes. In addition to clinical and electrophysiological findings, magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) may contribute to characterize plexus involvement. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was reported feasible for the nerve plexuses imaging but its value in the clinical practice remains uncertain. From 2014 to 2020, we routinely performed MRN including DTI at 3T in patients with acute or chronic plexopathy. DTI images were co-registered with conventional MRN images. MRN images including DTI were reviewed by consensus by two neuroradiologists and one neurologist. They retrospectively identified cases for whom the use of DTI had a potential impact on the diagnostic workup, seven of these clinical cases are presented here. Compared to conventional MRN, the added value of DTI consisted in: (i) improved detection of signal/morphological abnormalities of the plexus (due to removal of background structures, multiplanar reformatted views and large field of view), (ii) additional information regarding the microarchitecture of nerve fibers provided by DTI metrics, (iii) potential alternative for the use of gadolinium. This case series supports the implementation of DTI in MRN protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, an untreatable hereditary polyneuropathy, may mimic chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), a treatable neuropathy. METHODS In this retrospective study, we analyzed the characteristics of CMT patients misdiagnosed as CIDP at 16 university hospitals in three countries, compared these patients with a reference group of CIDP patients, and estimated the cost of misdiagnosis. RESULTS Among 1104 CIDP cases, we identified 35 CMT patients misdiagnosed as CIDP (3.2%). All were initially diagnosed with definite or probable CIDP (European Federation of Neurological Societies/Peripheral Nerve Society criteria), and mutations in PMP22, MPZ, and 10 other CMT genes were found in 34%, 31%, and 35% of cases, respectively. In comparison with a reference group of 35 CIDP patients, CMT patients were younger (median age at disease onset = 39 vs. 56 years) and more frequently had motor weakness at disease onset (80% vs. 29%), hearing loss (14% vs. 0%), normal brachial plexus imaging (70% vs. 40%), lower cerebrospinal fluid protein content (median = 0.5 vs. 0.8 g/L), and lower treatment response (20% vs. 69%). Treatment cost in these 35 misdiagnosed patients was estimated at 4.6 million euros (M€), whereas the cost of CMT genetic analysis in 1104 patients was estimated at 2.7 M€. CONCLUSIONS In this study, 35 of 1104 (3.2%) patients initially diagnosed with CIDP had CMT. Importantly, the cost of treating these 35 misdiagnosed patients was significantly higher than the cost of performing CMT genetic analysis in 1104 patients (4.6 M€ vs. 2.7 M€), suggesting that CMT genetic investigations should be more widely used before diagnosing CIDP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) have an impact on relapses and disease progression. Nonetheless, many patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) remain untreated. The objectives of the present study were to determine the proportion of untreated patients with MS followed in expert centers in France and to determine the predictive factors of nontreatment. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study. Data were extracted from the 38 centers participating in the European Database for Multiple Sclerosis (EDMUS) on December 15, 2018, and patients with MS seen at least once during the study period (from June 15, 2016 to June 14, 2017) were included. RESULTS Of the 21,189 patients with MS (age 47.1 ± 13.1 years; Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score 3.4 ± 2.4), 6,631 (31.3%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 30.7-31.9) were not receiving any DMT. Although patients with a relapsing-remitting course (n = 11,693) were the most likely to receive DMT, 14.8% (95% CI 14.2-15.4) were still untreated (6.8% never treated). After multivariate analysis among patients with relapsing-remitting MS, the main factors explaining never having been treated were: not having ≥9 lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (odds ratio [OR] 0.52 [95% CI 0.44-0.61]) and lower EDSS score (OR 0.78 [95% CI 0.74-0.82]). Most patients with progressive MS (50.4% for secondary and 64.2% for primary progressive MS) did not receive any DMT during the study period, while 11.6% of patients with secondary and 34.0% of patients with primary progressive MS had never received any DMT. CONCLUSION A significant proportion of patients with MS did not receive any DMT, even though such treatments are reimbursed by the healthcare system for French patients. This result highlights the unmet need for current DMTs for a large subgroup of patients with MS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neurological symptoms associated with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) may be related to metastatic disease or paraneoplastic syndromes (PNSs); these last are often associated with autoantibodies targeting various onconeural antigens. To better characterize neurological PNSs related to NETs, we report the largest case-series study to date. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the charts of all patients diagnosed with NETs of the gastrointestinal tract who presented with neurological symptoms at either of 2 tertiary academic hospitals (Henri Mondor and Beaujon, France) between 1994 and 2016. All patients underwent extensive neurological tests including clinical, laboratory, and radiological investigations. The clinical response to immunomodulating agents was recorded. RESULTS In the 13 identified patients, the most common presentations were peripheral neuropathy (46.2%) and encephalopathy (26.6%). Of the 6 (53.3%) patients whose serum anti-neuronal antibodies were assayed, 5 had high titres. Short-term oral corticosteroid and immunosuppressant drug therapy was given to 4 of these patients, of whom 3 had a clinical response and 1 no response. Repeated high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin therapy induced a complete clinical response in 1 patient. Encephalopathy resolved fully after hepatectomy or intrahepatic chemoembolization for liver metastases in another 2 patients. DISCUSSION The neurological symptoms associated with NETs may be due in part to autoimmune PNS. Based on experience at our 2 centres, we estimate that autoimmune PNS occurs in about 1% of patients with NETs. Early symptom recognition allows the initiation of effective treatments including corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs, and/or intravenous immunoglobulins.

Abstract
Abstract
In multiple sclerosis, treatment start or switch is prompted by evidence of disease activity. Whilst immunomodulatory therapies reduce disease activity, the time required to attain maximal effect is unclear. In this study we aimed to develop a method that allows identification of the time to manifest fully and clinically the effect of multiple sclerosis treatments (‘therapeutic lag’) on clinical disease activity represented by relapses and progression-of-disability events. Data from two multiple sclerosis registries, MSBase (multinational) and OFSEP (French), were used. Patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, minimum 1-year exposure to treatment, minimum 3-year pretreatment follow-up and yearly review were included in the analysis. For analysis of disability progression, all events in the subsequent 5-year period were included. Density curves, representing incidence of relapses and 6-month confirmed progression events, were separately constructed for each sufficiently represented therapy. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to identify the first local minimum of the first derivative after treatment start; this point represented the point of stabilization of treatment effect, after the maximum treatment effect was observed. The method was developed in a discovery cohort (MSBase), and externally validated in a separate, non-overlapping cohort (OFSEP). A merged MSBase-OFSEP cohort was used for all subsequent analyses. Annualized relapse rates were compared in the time before treatment start and after the stabilization of treatment effect following commencement of each therapy. We identified 11 180 eligible treatment epochs for analysis of relapses and 4088 treatment epochs for disability progression. External validation was performed in four therapies, with no significant difference in the bootstrapped mean differences in therapeutic lag duration between registries. The duration of therapeutic lag for relapses was calculated for 10 therapies and ranged between 12 and 30 weeks. The duration of therapeutic lag for disability progression was calculated for seven therapies and ranged between 30 and 70 weeks. Significant differences in the pre- versus post-treatment annualized relapse rate were present for all therapies apart from intramuscular interferon beta-1a. In conclusion we have developed, and externally validated, a method to objectively quantify the duration of therapeutic lag on relapses and disability progression in different therapies in patients more than 3 years from multiple sclerosis onset. Objectively defined periods of expected therapeutic lag allows insights into the evaluation of treatment response in randomized clinical trials and may guide clinical decision-making in patients who experience early on-treatment disease activity. This method will subsequently be applied in studies that evaluate the effect of patient and disease characteristics on therapeutic lag.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a severe complication of natalizumab (NTZ) treatment in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Based on the analysis of cryopreserved cells, several reports have showed that CD62L+ CD4+ T-cells percentage drops before PML onset. OBJECTIVE To analyze CD62L and CD45RA expression on fresh-blood CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells from NTZ-treated patients, according to their estimated PML risk. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 74 MS patients, including 62 NTZ-treated, and stratified them into low, intermediate and high PML risk groups. Circulating naïve and memory T-cell subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS We found no correlation between the percentage of CD62L+ CD4+ T-cells and PML risk. In contrast, the repartition of CD8+ T-cells subpopulations was altered in the high risk group: both the percentage and absolute count of CD8+ CD62L- CD45RA- effector memory T- cells (TEM) was significantly higher compared to patients at lower risk despite similar CD3+ and CD8+ T-cell counts. One high-risk patient with elevated CD8+ TEM and CD62L+ CD4+ T-cell levels developed PML six months after sampling. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that CD8+ TEM cells should be evaluated in larger studies as a potential surrogate marker of PML risk in NTZ-treated patients.

Abstract
Importance Risk factors associated with the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) are unknown. Disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) may modify the risk of developing a severe COVID-19 infection, beside identified risk factors such as age and comorbidities. Objective To describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients with MS and COVID-19 and identify factors associated with COVID-19 severity. Design, Setting, and Participants The Covisep registry is a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study conducted in MS expert centers and general hospitals and with neurologists collaborating with MS expert centers and members of the Société Francophone de la Sclérose en Plaques. The study included patients with MS presenting with a confirmed or highly suspected diagnosis of COVID-19 between March 1, 2020, and May 21, 2020. Exposures COVID-19 diagnosed with a polymerase chain reaction test on a nasopharyngeal swab, thoracic computed tomography, or typical symptoms. Main Outcomes and Measures The main outcome was COVID-19 severity assessed on a 7-point ordinal scale (ranging from 1 [not hospitalized with no limitations on activities] to 7 [death]) with a cutoff at 3 (hospitalized and not requiring supplemental oxygen). We collected demographics, neurological history, Expanded Disability Severity Scale score (EDSS; ranging from 0 to 10, with cutoffs at 3 and 6), comorbidities, COVID-19 characteristics, and outcomes. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to estimate the association of collected variables with COVID-19 outcomes. Results A total of 347 patients (mean [SD] age, 44.6 [12.8] years, 249 women; mean [SD] disease duration, 13.5 [10.0] years) were analyzed. Seventy-three patients (21.0%) had a COVID-19 severity score of 3 or more, and 12 patients (3.5%) died of COVID-19. The median EDSS was 2.0 (range, 0-9.5), and 284 patients (81.8%) were receiving DMT. There was a higher proportion of patients with a COVID-19 severity score of 3 or more among patients with no DMT relative to patients receiving DMTs (46.0% vs 15.5%; P < .001). Multivariate logistic regression models determined that age (odds ratio per 10 years: 1.9 [95% CI, 1.4-2.5]), EDSS (OR for EDSS ≥6, 6.3 [95% CI. 2.8-14.4]), and obesity (OR, 3.0 [95% CI, 1.0-8.7]) were independent risk factors for a COVID-19 severity score of 3 or more (indicating hospitalization or higher severity). The EDSS was associated with the highest variability of COVID-19 severe outcome (R2, 0.2), followed by age (R2, 0.06) and obesity (R2, 0.01). Conclusions and Relevance In this registry-based cohort study of patients with MS, age, EDSS, and obesity were independent risk factors for severe COVID-19; there was no association found between DMTs exposure and COVID-19 severity. The identification of these risk factors should provide the rationale for an individual strategy regarding clinical management of patients with MS during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Alexithymia is a personality construct that could occur in up to 53 % of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). It entails difficulties in identifying and describing one's feelings and an externally oriented thinking. The current work aims to assess the neural underpinnings of alexithymia in this population. METHODS Forty-five patients with MS filled in the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (n = 17 with high alexithymia and n = 28 with low alexithymia). Brain magnetic resonance imaging was obtained for each patient and a morphometry algorithm (MorphoBox) was applied to calculate regional brain volumes. All patients underwent a clinical and neuropsychological evaluation which included measures for anxiety, depression, fatigue, daytime sleepiness, and basic and social cognition. RESULTS Compared to patients with low alexithymia, patients with high alexithymia had significantly higher fatigue and depression ratings, and lower empathy scores. In addition, they had lower volumes of corpus callosum, deep white matter, pallidum bilaterally, and left thalamus. In the whole cohort, alexithymia scores were inversely correlated with gray matter (thalamus and pallidum bilaterally) and white matter volumes (corpus callosum and bilateral deep white matter) after controlling for covariates (ps<0.05). CONCLUSION This study offers insights on the neuropsychological and neural substrates of alexithymia in MS. The current findings are consistent with alexithymia reports in other clinical populations, and suggest an association between alexithymia and atrophy of thalami, pallidum, corpus callosum and deep white matter in MS. Further research is needed to enhance the understanding of alexithymia mechanisms in this clinical context.

Abstract
Background: Atypical myelitis in multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by extensive myelitis in the longitudinal (longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis) or axial plane (transverse myelitis). Objective: To characterize a cohort of MS patients with atypical myelitis. Methods: Atypical myelitis was extracted from the French and Luxembourg MS databases and compared to two cohorts of MS patients with typical myelitis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) patients with myelitis. Results: We enrolled 28 MS patients with atypical myelitis, 68 MS patients with typical myelitis and 119 NMOSD patients with a first episode of myelitis. MS patients with atypical myelitis were characterized by a mean age of 34.0 (±10.7) years and 64.3% were women. In 82.1% of the patients, atypical myelitis was the first episode of MS. Mean Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores at nadir and 3–6 months after onset were 4.1 ± 2.1 and 3.3 ± 2, respectively. Differences between groups revealed a predominance of cervicothoracic myelitis and a higher level of disability in NMOSD patients. Disability in MS patients with atypical myelitis was more severe than in the MS patients with typical myelitis; 28% had already converted to progressive MS within our mean follow-up of 39.6 (±30.4) months. Conclusion: Atypical myelitis may be the first presentation of MS and is associated with poorer prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Metabolic abnormalities, such as, glycemic disorders and metabolic syndrome (GDMS) are one of the main causes of peripheral neuropathies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of adding specific coaching care (CC) to standard care (SC) of therapeutic education based on lifestyle recommendations for neuropathies associated with GDMS. METHODS This prospective randomized study included two groups of four patients (SC vs. CC) with examiners blinded to group allocation. The SC group had one day of therapeutic education on lifestyle measures (physical activity and diet recommendations) followed by only one phone call of reinforcement. The CC group received an additional weekly phone call of reinforcement for 3 months. Clinical, biological and neurophysiological variables were compared between the two groups at baseline and for the percentage of change at 3 months. RESULTS All patients (4 men and 4 women) had diabetes or pre-diabetes, which was associated with metabolic syndrome in 5 cases. There was no difference on any variable at baseline, but at 3 months, Mann-Whitney test showed a difference (P=0.0008) between the two groups regarding the sensory neurophysiological variable, which deteriorated in the SC group (median: -6.0%) and improved in the CC group (median: +12.4%). No significant difference was observed between the two groups for the other variables at 3 months. CONCLUSION The weekly coaching of recommendations for lifestyle measures over a period of three months allows an improvement of GDMS neuropathies, at least in terms of sensory aspects, as evidenced by neurophysiological assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression and anxiety stand among the most frequent and debilitating complaints in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Understanding their neurophysiological correlates might improve their management. To date, no single study has addressed this issue. METHOD Patients completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was performed to obtain the following corticospinal excitability measures: resting motor threshold, short-interval intracortical inhibition and facilitation, cortical silent period and interhemispheric inhibition (IHI). Anxiety and depression scores were the primary outcomes in the univariate analysis. When obtaining significant associations between anxiety/depression and TMS measures, a multivariate analysis was performed using stepwise linear regression with anxiety and depression scores employed separately as dependent variables and TMS measures, clinical and sociodemographic data as independent variables. Due to the small sample size and the large number of studied variables, only variables with p values <0.05 in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis. RESULTS Fifty patients completed the study (n = 24 women). Their mean age was 51.82 ± 12.72 years. Mean depression score was 6.08 ± 3.66. Mean anxiety score was 5.82 ± 3.42. A significant association was found between anxiety and IHI (p < 0.05), fatigue (p < 0.05), depression (p < 0.05), and female gender (p < 0.05). Stepwise linear regression analysis was performed and IHI values explained 9.10% of variance in anxiety levels (standardized β: 0.31; p < 0.01) when controlling for remaining variables. As for depression, it did not significantly correlate with any TMS measures. CONCLUSION The results highlight the relationship between anxiety and callosal transfer as reflected by IHI values. The current findings are consistent with previous works assessing healthy participants and patients with social anxiety disorders. Compared to MS patients with aberrant callosal transfer (suggested by low IHI values), those exhibiting a relatively more efficient one (reflected by high IHI values) seem to have higher anxiety scores, a finding that merits further assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the value of a novel sensory criterion, the ulnar ratio - defined as the SNAP amplitude of the palmar cutaneous (pUN) over that of the dorsal branch (dUN) of the ulnar nerve - as a predictor of Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (AIDP). METHODS We prospectively included 22 patients with AIDP, 20 patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), and 18 controls. Eligible subjects underwent nerve conduction studies including, among others, the dUN, pUN, and sural nerve. RESULTS A sural sparing pattern was found in 72% of AIDP cases. The ulnar ratio was significantly lower in patients with AIDP compared to those with DPN or controls. The ROC curve area to discriminate AIDP (versus controls and diabetics together) was higher with the ulnar ratio and pUN compared to dUN. An ulnar ratio ≥ 0.78 seems to be the best threshold to rule out the diagnosis of AIDP, with a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 87%. The ulnar ratio was equally reliable in the subgroup of patients presenting within a week of symptoms onset. CONCLUSION The ulnar ratio is a highly sensitive and specific marker of AIDP and can help confirm the diagnosis when direct signs of demyelination are lacking. SIGNIFICANCE Incorporating specific sensory abnormalities, such as the ulnar ratio, in the electrodiagnostic criteria of AIDP could enhance their reliability.

Abstract
The causes of multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have long remained elusive. A new category of pathogenic components, normally dormant within human genomes, has been identified: human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). These represent ∼8% of the human genome, and environmental factors have reproducibly been shown to trigger their expression. The resulting production of envelope (Env) proteins from HERV-W and HERV-K appears to engage pathophysiological pathways leading to the pathognomonic features of MS and ALS, respectively. Pathogenic HERV elements may thus provide a missing link in understanding these complex diseases. Moreover, their neutralization may represent a promising strategy to establish novel and more powerful therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Fatigue and depression are frequent symptoms in multiple sclerosis (MS). Both are overlapping and shadowing each other and may impair the quality of life. For detection of depression symptoms in MS, the Multiple Sclerosis Depression Rating Scale (MSDRS) has been proposed recently. Here, we compare the performance of MSDRS in MS patients with and without fatigue to that of established rating scales, i.e. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Beck Depression Inventory. Twenty-nine MS patients were screened for fatigue and depression symptoms. Patients with fatigue showed significantly higher depression scores compared to patients without fatigue, whereas the number of depressed patients did not differ between the two groups. MSDRS seems to have higher sensitivity to detect severe depression than established rating scales. However, one should keep in mind that such a finding might be due to an increase in false positive cases when using MSDRS. Implementing this scale in future studies might be of help to enhance the understanding of its potential utility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Social cognition stands among the most frequently affected yet the least studied cognitive domains in multiple sclerosis (MS). Theory of mind (ToM) is a social cognitive facet that implies the one's ability to predict others' mental states. The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between ToM and neuropsychological and neuroimaging data. METHODS Thirty-eight consecutive MS patients completed the Reading the Mind in the Eyes test (RMET). They underwent a neuropsychological evaluation and a 3T T1-weighted brain MRI. A fully automated volume-based morphometry algorithm (MorphoBox) was applied to calculate regional brain volumes. Correlation analysis was performed using Spearman's test. RESULTS Among the sociodemographic and clinical data, significant correlations were found between RMET scores and each of years of education (r=0.54; p<0.01) and the duration of the disease progressive phase (r=-0.46; p<0.01). Regarding neuropsychological measures, RMET scores were directly correlated with information processing speed (r=0.58; p<0.01) and empathy (r=0.46; p<0.01) scores. As for brain volumes, RMET scores were directly correlated with parietal (left: r=0.39; right: r=0.46; p<0.05) and temporal (left: r=0.36; right: r=0.40; p<0.05) white matter volumes, as well as with cingulate (left: r=0.32; right: r=0.44; p<0.05) gray matter volumes. CONCLUSION These results highlight the relationship between ToM and some of the disease characteristics and cognitive domains. Importantly, ToM performance in MS is associated with brain volumes of key areas in social cognitive networks. Further works are needed to enhance the current knowledge on the underlying mechanisms of ToM deficits in this population.
