ABSTRACT
Introduction: multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous
system of probable autoimmune origin and unknown cause.
Development: recently we have developed a number of biomarkers that allow
more accurate understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease which facilitates
better diagnosis and establish a better prognosis and to evaluate more effectively
the treatment to patients affected indicated. Has conducted a review of these issues
allowing argue that remains very important to the realization of nuclear magnetic
resonance but other markers that are proving to be effective among which we can
mention the neurofilament and optical coherence tomography are added. Novel
criteria are also mentioned as the most effective therapy with that account globally
for these patients literature review was conducted in Medline, Cochrane Library and
Dynamed of the Evidence-Based Medicine, Virtual Health Library of Bireme and
EBSCO from September 2010 to October 2014.
Conclusions: multiple sclerosis is the most common cause of neurological
disorders in young adults and is the most common form of the disease by altering
central nervous system myelin. Currently there are major advances in the
identification of biomarkers that will surely help further more general knowledge of
the disease and thus the diagnosis, prognosis and evaluation of best treatment.
