A population-based and cross-sectional study of the long-term prognosis in multifocal motor neuropathy

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System Feb 15, 2019

Al-Zuhairy A, et al. - In this population-based, cross-sectional study, researchers assessed the long-term outcome in Danish patients treated for multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN). Participants in the study were patients referred to the Danish hospital system between 1985 and 2006. According to findings, long-term prognosis in treated MMN is characterized by moderate to severe impairment, which mainly affects dexterity and ankle stability. Investigators found that patients were considerably more fatigued and had substantially impaired hand dexterity. On the other hand, mood, aerobic capacity, social adjustment and working capacity were not affected. The study findings supported previous observations that the long-term impairment in MMN could be improved following the earlier start of therapy and that an effect of disease duration cannot be shown.
