Early Upper Limb Motor Impairment in Multiple Sclerosis Across EDSS Levels: A Case–Control Study
Upper limb function is impaired in people with multiple sclerosis compared with healthy controls, even at low levels of neurological disability. Patients are stratified by Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score (≤3.5 and >3.5) and assessed using objective upper limb measures.
