The MS pathogenesis includes vascular and inflammatory components, however recently also the role of mitochondrial dysfunction being a hot topic in neurodegeneration. Current project is based on previous project results, where the investigators of this project found signs of insulin resistance (IR) with hyperinsulinemia in patients with MS, which seem not to be related to chronic inflammation or low physical activity. Therefore aim of the present project is to elucidate impact of mitochondrial dysfunction in the pathogenesis of impaired insulin action and its role in the neurodegenerative process. To test the hypothesis, mitochondrial function, endothelial function, changes in membrane proteins and function of autonomic nervous system will be assessed. Those parameters will be measured non-invasively and in samples of blood, cerebrospinal fluid and skeletal muscle. MS patients will be examined at the time of diagnosis and after 12 months of treatment; healthy subjects will be used as controls. Elucidation of insulin resistance cause and the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in pathogenesis of disease is expected. Potential outcome of the project could be the answer, if pharmacological or non-pharmacological intervention might lead to improvement of mitochondrial function and therefore represent a new approach to prevent MS progression.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients with newly diagnosed MS will be examined twice: immediately after the diagnosis confirmation and after at least 12 months of MS treatment', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria for MS patients:\n\n* Age: 18-45 years\n* Recent diagnosis of MS based on McDonald criteria\n* Functional disability defined by the EDDS in the range of 2 to 6\n* Patient demonstrates ability to successfully perform physical therapy exercises and procedures independently or with assistance of a caregiver\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* smoking, pregnancy, lactation, received a course of steroids (intravenous or oral) within 60 days of screening, diabetes, hypertension'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03052595', 'acronym': 'MS-MIDY', 'briefTitle': 'Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in IR Resistance', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER_GOV', 'fullName': 'Slovak Academy of Sciences'}, 'officialTitle': 'Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Insulin Resistance', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'APVV 15-0228'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'SM', 'description': 'Patients with newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis undergo Oral glucose tolerance test to measure glucose and insulin concentrations after oral glucose load Patients undergo testing of autonomous nervous system function and testing of cognitive function (Stroop test)', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: Oral glucose tolerance test', 'Diagnostic Test: Testing of autonomous nervous system function', 'Diagnostic Test: Stroop test']}, {'label': 'Control', 'description': 'Age, sex, Body Mass Index (BMI) matched healthy subjects undergo Oral glucose tolerance test to measure glucose and insulin concentrations after oral glucose load Healthy controls undergo testing of autonomous nervous system function and testing of cognitive function (Stroop test)', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: Oral glucose tolerance test', 'Diagnostic Test: Testing of autonomous nervous system function', 'Diagnostic Test: Stroop test']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Oral glucose tolerance test', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Oral glucose tolerance test to measure glucose and insulin concentrations after oral glucose load', 'armGroupLabels': ['Control', 'SM']}, {'name': 'Testing of autonomous nervous system function', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Autonomous nervous system function will be assessed using a battery of tests (orthostasis, Valsalva manoeuvre, heart rate variability recording, blood hormone levels, ect.)', 'armGroupLabels': ['Control', 'SM']}, {'name': 'Stroop test', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Stroop test will be used to test cognitive function', 'armGroupLabels': ['Control', 'SM']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '84505', 'city': 'Bratislava', 'country': 'Slovakia', 'facility': 'Biomedical Center, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Institute of clinical and translational reasearch', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 48.14816, 'lon': 17.10674}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Viera Sevcikova, Ing', 'role': 'STUDY_CHAIR', 'affiliation': 'Biomedical Research Center of Slovak Academy of Sciences'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Slovak Academy of Sciences', 'class': 'OTHER_GOV'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Comenius University', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Responsible Clinical Investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Adela Penesova, MD, PhD', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Slovak Academy of Sciences'}}}}
