Detection of ventricular enlargement in patients at the earliest clinical stage of MS
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether atrophy could be detected at the earliest clinical stages of MS. Patients were selected from a 1-year follow-up MRI study of clinically isolated syndromes. Nine patients who developed MS were compared with eight matched patients who had no further symptoms. Significant ventricular enlargement occurred in the group that developed MS but not in the other group. Our findings show that atrophy, albeit mild, can be detected early in the course of MS.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
