Abstract
Cognitive impairment in MS is due to strategic focal lesions affecting regions and tracts involved in cognitive processes and to diffuse damage in the white and gray matter. This complex etiology could explain the absence of a relationship between the cognitive functioning and PAI-1 in patients with MS that has been found in vascular dementia or Alzheimer's disease. Plasma curves of PAI-1 and its measures in cerebrospinal fluid could help elucidate the role of PAI-1 in MS.
