The 49 pages that link to Multiple sclerosis, each with the reason it gives.

• Hyperbaric oxygen therapyCompared with: Hyperbaric oxygen has been promoted for this disease, but evidence does not establish it as an effective treatment.

• LeukodystrophyCompared with: It can cause white-matter lesions but is acquired rather than an inherited leukodystrophy.

• Conversion disorderCompared with: It illustrates structural neurological disease that can resemble functional symptoms and requires separate assessment.

• Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathyCompared with: Both diseases damage myelin, but multiple sclerosis is not caused by JC virus.

• Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorderCompared with: It can cause optic neuritis and spinal cord lesions, but differs in biology, imaging patterns, and treatment.

• Alexander diseaseCompared with: Both conditions can affect white matter, but multiple sclerosis is an acquired demyelinating disease.

• Hereditary spastic paraplegiaCompared with: Spinal cord lesions can cause leg spasticity, but inflammatory features and imaging distinguish it.

• Pelizaeus–Merzbacher diseaseCompared with: It also affects central nervous system myelin, but is acquired and inflammatory rather than usually inherited.

• SyringomyeliaCompared with: It can cause neurological deficits resembling those of syringomyelia through a different mechanism.

• Neurodegenerative diseaseCompared with: Its primary pathology targets myelin, distinguishing it from diseases defined by progressive neuronal loss.

• Stiff-person syndromeCompared with: Both are immune-related neurological diseases, but multiple sclerosis is defined by inflammatory demyelination.
