- Abstract
This document is an editorial published in Frontiers in Neurology titled "Aging in multiple sclerosis: from childhood to old age, in women and men." The editorial discusses various aspects of multiple sclerosis (MS) related to aging, including the impact of MS on different age groups, menopause, reproductive issues, treatment considerations, working ability, socio-economic burden, and frailty. The authors highlight the importance of timely diagnosis, the role of aging and sex hormones, and the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in understanding the aging process in MS. They also mention the influence of menopause on MS and the limited research on the incidence of cancer in MS and its treatment. The editorial concludes by suggesting further research topics that need consideration.
