The article focuses on the cortical degeneration as potential pathogenesis of cognitive impairment in neuromyelitis optica (NMO). It reports on a study during which 57 percent of the NMO spectrum disorder (NMOsd) patients and 47 percent of the multiple sclerosis (MS) patients showed impaired performance by an assessment through a neuropsychological test. It states that further research is needed to investigate the essential mechanisms of cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration.
