今年一月10號在美國麻州舉辦CCSVI和MS關聯的會議

January 10, 2011 at Brandeis University, Waltham, MA,

Dr.Dake博士是第一個在美國使用氣球擴張和支架撐開術來治療多發性硬化症患者的靜脈狹窄情形(CCSVI)的醫師。 1月10日，他提出了一個全面的的證據來支持 靜脈狹窄情形(CCSVI)和多發性硬化症的關係。 以下是他內容豐富的演講以及之後回答觀眾的提問的影片。

Among those conducting CCSVI research is Dr. Michael Dake, a professor of cardiothoracic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.

Dake followed 30 people with MS who had stents implanted to open their veins. Two months after surgery, they reported feeling 50 percent less fatigued than before surgery, Dake said. They continued to be less fatigued at the one-year mark, even improving slightly from where they were two months after surgery, he said.

在Dake博士所處理的病患當中，有30位病患在靜脈當中植入了支架。經統計後發現：手術2個月後有一半的病人比手術之前較不會疲累。持續追蹤手術一年後，仍舊維持其精神狀態，比手術之前較不會疲累，有些甚至比手術2個月還要更有精神。

People who saw the most benefit were those with the relapsing-remitting form of MS, in which periods of remission, when the person feels relatively good, are followed by MS flares, Dake said.

而且對於反覆發作型的MS病患而言術後的反應更佳。

People with more aggressive or more advanced forms of MS, including primary and secondary progressive MS, reported about a 40 percent drop in fatigue two months after the surgery, but the effect did not last at the one-year mark, Dake said.

但是對於主要退化型以及次要退化型的MS病患而言，手術2個月後有40%的病人比手術之前較不會疲累。但是情況卻無法持續一年。

Dake was scheduled to present his findings this week at the International Symposium on Endovascular Therapy in Miami Beach。
Dake博士這星期將會把他的結果在邁阿密的國際靜脈醫療會議中呈現和討論
