Trial summary

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and the most common cause of non traumatic disability in young and middle-aged people. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disease (nmosd) is an independent disease different from Ms. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Computer Aided Imaging Evaluation of Central Nervous System Autoimmune Diseases

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and the most common cause of non traumatic disability in young and middle-aged people. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disease (nmosd) is an independent disease different from Ms. the pathogenesis and the mode of brain and spinal cord injury are different from MS, and the prognosis and optimal treatment are different. It is difficult to distinguish the two diseases in the early stage. Early diagnosis and treatment of the two diseases can greatly improve the quality of life of patients. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to clarify the difference between MS and nmosd injury patterns and to find sensitive imaging markers for early clinical intervention. With the continuous progress of computer aided diagnosis (CAD), it is more and more widely used in medicine, which is expected to help solve the above problems.

The purpose of this study is to create a neuroimmune disease evaluation database based on image data. By combining brain and spinal cord imaging, and based on Zhang quantum space learning computer-aided technology, we can achieve accurate segmentation of MS and nmosd brain and spinal cord lesions, analyze the evolution characteristics of the disease at different time points, and screen the imaging indexes related to clinical scores combined with clinical and laboratory indexes Objective: to determine the different prognosis and its influencing factors at the clinical, imaging and molecular levels, and establish the model for predicting disease progression and prognosis, so as to provide the basis for early identification and assistance in guiding treatment and judging prognosis.

Clinical information was collected: age, gender, course of disease, MMSE, EDSS disability score, nine hole test, 25 foot walking test. Assess the patient's information processing ability. Blood samples were collected. Imaging examination was performed. The patients were followed up regularly.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and NMO Spectrum Disorder, run by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xaoyu Han (18560081083, 710804284@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Results of MRI data analysis (time frame: 2021-03-01-2022-06-30). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Mar 2021.
