Abstract
This study assessed osteoporosis knowledge and awareness among multiple sclerosis patients. The findings reveal a concerning lack of knowledge and awareness regarding osteoporosis, emphasizing the necessity for educational interventions to enhance early detection and mitigate complications within this particular patient group. AIM To assess the knowledge and awareness of osteoporosis in Turkish multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. MATERIAL-METHODS Three hundred twenty-five patients were asked to fill out the osteoporosis awareness scale (OAS), which has a scoring range of 31-124, and the revised osteoporosis knowledge test (R-OKT), which has a score range of 0-32. Fall risk assessment for patients was conducted using the timed up-and-go test (high risk: > 30, moderate risk: 29-20, low risk: 14-19, and no risk: < 13 s). RESULTS An average score of 59.42 ± 19.63(31%) on the OAS and 14.99 ± 5.39 (47%) on the R-OKT was detected. No difference was found in R-OKT scores between genders, education levels, and patients with different fall risks and between genders and education levels in OAS scores. Patients with low, medium, and high fall risks exhibited higher OAS scores compared to those without any fall risk (p = 0.006, p < 0.001, and p < 0.001, respectively). No correlation was found between gender and education level with OAS and R-OKT scores and between the R-OKT scores and the risk of falls. There was a weak correlation between the OAS scores and an increased risk of falls (r = 0.269, p < 0.001). No differences between the age groups regarding OAS and R-OKT scores were observed. CONCLUSIONS Turkish MS patients have inadequate knowledge and low awareness of OP compared to the healthy population. Urgent action is warranted to educate and support individuals with MS, implementing targeted interventions and awareness campaigns to improve early detection and prevent osteoporosis-related complications. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05760651.

Effects of Exercise, Rehabilitation, and Nutritional Approaches on Body Composition and Bone Density in People with Multiple Sclerosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Abstract
People with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) are affected by a wide range of disabilities, including a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and a worsening of body composition (BC), which negatively impact their quality of life quality. This study aims to analyze the effects of nonpharmacological interventions-in particular, physical activity, nutritional approaches, and rehabilitation-on BC and BMD in pwMS. This systematic review and meta-analysis was performed following the updated version of the PRISMA guidelines. In July 2022, five databases (MEDLINE, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Web of Science) and gray literature were screened. Relevant articles published between 1 January 1990 and 1 September 2022 in any language were included. Outcomes of interest were anthropometric, BC measures, and BMD. The RoB 2.0 tool was used to assess the risk of bias. After duplicates elimination, 1120 records were screened, and 36 studies were included. A total of 25 articles were focused on physical activity and rehabilitation, 10 on nutrition, and 1 on multimodal intervention. One-third of the studies were judged to be at high risk of bias. The meta-analysis showed a high degree of heterogeneity due to the high variability in disease severity and intervention duration, intensity, frequency, and type. In general, no intervention showed consistent positive effects on BC. However, the most promising interventions seemed to be high-intensity training and ketogenic diets. Only a few studies considered BMD, and the results are inconsistent. Nevertheless, more studies are needed in order to confirm these results.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS), characterized by demyelinating neuropathy. Despite a long period of research on the immune mechanisms involved in CNS diseases, the etiology of MS remains unknown. MS may present with different clinical and pathological manifestations due to the involvement of different pathogenic processes, including balance and mobility disorders, psychiatric abnormalities, and intestinal dysfunction. We used an animal model of MS, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), to assess clinical symptoms of MS with the aim of creating new indicators for the assessment of EAE. Our results show that EAE mice develop severe bone loss, anxiety-like moods, and intestinal inflammation in addition to clinical phenomena such as inflammatory infiltration and demyelination of the spinal cord. Our new indicators aim to provide a more comprehensive assessment of MS to avoid the pitfalls of a single intervention and also to provide a more systematic assessment of the effectiveness of drugs used to treat MS.

Abstract
Bone mass is a key determinant of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. Epidemiologic studies have shown that a 10% increase in peak bone mass (PBM) at the population level reduces the risk of fracture later in life by 50%. Low PBM is possibly due to the bone loss caused by various conditions or processes that occur during adolescence and young adulthood. Race, gender, and family history (genetics) are responsible for the majority of PBM, but other factors, such as physical activity, calcium and vitamin D intake, weight, smoking and alcohol consumption, socioeconomic status, age at menarche, and other secondary causes (diseases and medications), play important roles in PBM gain during childhood and adolescence. Hence, the optimization of lifestyle factors that affect PBM and bone strength is an important strategy to maximize PBM among adolescents and young people, and thus to reduce the low bone mass or osteoporosis risk in later life. This review aims to summarize the available evidence for the common but important factors that influence bone mass gain during growth and development and discuss the advances of developing high PBM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence and risk factors of low bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Patients with MS who had undergone a BMD evaluation via dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) between January 2010 and December 2013 were included in the study. Descriptive data, BMD values, and risk factors for osteoporosis along with the details regarding MS, such as age at onset, duration of disease, clinical type of MS, expanded disability status scale (EDSS) scores, and lifetime steroid intake were obtained from the medical record database and telephone interview. RESULTS The study group comprised 67 patients with a mean age of 41.1 ± 10.2 years. Of the patients, 20.9% revealed low BMD for chronological age. Vitamin D insufficiency (25(OH)D < 20 ng/ml) rate was 86.6%. Comorbidity and EDSS scores of patients with low BMD were significantly higher than those of the remaining patients (P = 0.000 and P = 0.015, respectively). Neck BMD was inversely correlated with comorbidity score, disease duration, relapse number, and lifetime steroid intake (r = - 0.270, r = - 0.263, r = - 0.359, and r = - 0.314, respectively). CONCLUSION The current study revealed that low BMD and vitamin D insufficiency were common in patients with MS. Longer disease duration, higher comorbidity score, and severe disability level led to lower BMD values. In conclusion, it is of paramount importance for clinicians to pay more attention on bone health in MS and to tailor preventative measures meticulously.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory-demyelinating disease of the nervous system. There has been mounting evidence showing that MS is associated with increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures. The development of osteoporosis in MS patients can be related to the cumulative effects of various factors. This review summarizes the common risk factors and physiologic pathways that play a role in development of osteoporosis in MS patients. Physical inactivity and reduced mechanical load on the bones (offsetting gravity) is likely the major contributing factor for osteoporosis in MS. Additional possible factors leading to reduced bone mass are low vitamin D levels, and use of medications such as glucocorticoids and anticonvulsants. The role of the inflammatory processes related to the underlying disease is considered in the context of the complex bone metabolism. The known effect of different MS disease-modifying therapies on bone health is limited. An algorithm for diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in MS is proposed.
