38 patients with relapsing-remitting form, 50 healthy individuals, and eight patients with secondary progressive form were included in this study. Forintrathecal analysis, nine patients with clinically isolated syndrome and eight controls were included. Among the eight controls without neurological disease, there was four hydrocephalus, one anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors’ encephalitis, one leukopathy, one tetrapyramidal syndrome, and one idiopathic high pressure hydrocephalus.
