About this trial

In the sponsor's words

The first aim of this project is to investigate the effects of different high-tech neurorehabilitation interventions (cognitive, motor, and combined cognitive-motor) on both cognitive and motor disability outcomes in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). The second aim is to identify the cognitive and motor profiles of MS patients who benefit the most from either the combined cognitive-motor rehabilitation intervention or the isolated cognitive or motor treatments.
