Is vertebral artery surgery effective for treating MS?

In the 1970s, a Los Angeles vascular surgeon reported that his multiple sclerosis (MS) patients showed restoration of lost neurological functions after vertebral artery surgery. He explained that MS was due to clogging of the arteries in the vertebrae of the neck and that his findings before and after surgery would prove this. I was personally appointed by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to interview the doctor and review his data.

The arteriogram pictures he had were unreadable and the case studies disappointing. Although many patients claimed they had improvements, their postoperative exams showed no change in their conditions. In May 1987, the surgeon's license to practice medicine was revoked.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
