An animated, cited guide for students, people with MS and their families. Educational only, not medical advice. Your place is saved on this device.

Not medical adviceMS Companion is an educational synthesis of published literature for study and patient understanding. It does not replace a neurologist or MS nurse. Doses, criteria and guideline statements are reported as published, not as instructions for any individual. Never stop or switch a medicine without your own team.

Part 6 · Context & review

Sources

Every reference behind MS Companion: journal articles, guidelines, drug labels, trial registrations and regulator pages. The small numbers throughout the app point here; filter by research area or search.

Eight research passes ran in parallel, one per area: epidemiology and history, genetics and risk, mechanism, diagnosis, disease-modifying therapies, living with MS, research toward a cure, and nursing care. Before inclusion each source was checked, where possible, against PubMed, Europe PMC, Crossref, ClinicalTrials.gov, ISRCTN or openFDA, and the green tag on an entry names the service that confirmed it. Works found by more than one pass appear once, with any extra keys listed beside them.

Entries marked check are regulator pages, press releases and society pages that have no PMID or DOI, or works that could not be confirmed. They are used only for what they state, so treat them with extra care.

    MS Companion is an educational synthesis of the published literature on multiple sclerosis, made for health-science and nursing courses and for patient understanding.

    It is not medical advice. It cannot diagnose, and nothing here should change a treatment without your own clinician. Criteria, doses and guideline statements are quoted as published. Please check the original sources, which are listed in full in the Sources module.
