Brief Summary
This study is being conducted to investigate risk factors for disability progression in Multiple Sclerosis and related disorders (MSRD). The primary goal is to assess whether combining information from visual assessment, blood markers, as well as historical and ongoing longitudinal MRIs of the brain, orbit (the part of the skull where eyes are located), and/or spinal cord can predict changes in quantitative disability measures related to MSRD and neurological disease.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Identifying risk factors for disability progression
To investigate whether combining information from peripheral blood biomarkers, retinal structural, visual function, as well as historical and ongoing longitudinal MRIs (brain, cervical, and/or thoracic spinal cord) can predict quantitative disability progression risk
10 years
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Effect of disease modifying therapy
10 years
Identify factors associated with visual disability and optic neuropathy in multiple sclerosis and related disorders
10 years
Identify serum, genetic, and stem cell-derived biomarkers influencing disability risks
10 years
Study Arms (5)
RRMS, SPMS, PPMS, CIS or RIS
Multiple Sclerosis (relapsing-remitting, primary or secondary progressive forms), clinically isolated syndrome, or radiologically isolated syndrome
NMOSD
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders
MOGAD
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disorders
Neurological disorder other than MSRD
Neurological disorders due to neurodegenerative, vascular, or headache conditions that are not related to multiple sclerosis or related disorders.
Healthy controls
Healthy controls with no known neurological conditions
Eligibility Criteria
Participants with the following conditions or healthy volunteers are eligible to participate in the study: 1. Multiple sclerosis (MS), clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), or radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS) 2. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) 3. Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody associated disorders (MOGAD) 4. Neurological disorder other than MS and related disorders 5. Healthy volunteers
You may qualify if:
- Subjects who meet any one of the following diagnostic criteria:
- Diagnosis of MS, CIS,or RIS based on the 2017 revised McDonald criteria.
- Diagnosis of NMOSD based on the 2015 revised NMOSD consensus diagnostic criteria.
- Diagnosis of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-related encephalomyelitis, optic neuritis, or other associated disease.
- Diagnosis of neurological disorders other than MSRD.
- Healthy volunteer.
- Age ≥18.
- Able to give informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients will be excluded from the MRI portions of the study if they have a contraindication to MRI(metallic implantsor foreign bodies, claustrophobia, MRI-incompatible pacemakers, MRI- incompatible prosthetic heart valves).
- Patients will be excluded from the MRI portions of the study if they are pregnant, but their demographic, clinical information,and disability measures may still be captured under the study.
- Patients will be excluded from the visual assessment portions of the study if they have had any recent ocular surgery (within the past two months), refractive errors of greater than or equal to ±6 diopters or other eye diseases that may affect or confound OCT/OCTA measurements (ex., age-related macular degeneration, advanced geographic atrophy, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma).
