Applying an Ethical Lens to the Treatment of People With Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 4, Page 850-859, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The practice of neurology requires an understanding of clinical ethics for decision‐making. In multiple sclerosis (MS) care, there are a wide range of ethical considerations that may arise. These involve shared decision‐making around selection of a disease‐modifying therapy (DMT), risks and benefits of well‐studied medications in comparison to

Ferroptotic neurodegeneration and diet: a narrative review

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2026.
Dietary regimes and separate components have been reported to reduce ferroptosis by (1) altering iron metabolism, (2) increasing antioxidant defense, and (3) reducing lipid peroxidation. This ultimately leads to reduced ferroptosis and neurodegeneration.
