Abstract
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in exploring the non-classical symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS), with a particular focus on cognitive impairments associated with the disease's progression. These cognitive symptoms are now recognized as crucial elements in the assessment of disease activity. In this context, neurophysiology has emerged as a valuable and accessible tool for studying and addressing cognitive decline in individuals with MS. This scoping literature review investigates the role of neurophysiology in assessing and treating cognitive impairment in MS patients. The review focuses on Electroencephalography (EEG), Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS), and magnetoencephalography (MEG) to assess cognitive decline in MS patients. Moreover, we discuss all the papers that tried to treat this cognitive impairment with NIBS techniques. While several neurophysiological markers show potential, standardization of protocols is essential for enhancing the reliability and consistency of these approaches. Further research is warranted to explore other NIBS techniques and deepen our understanding of the neurophysiological underpinnings of cognitive deficits in MS.
