      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2006, 73 (2) 161-167;

      Nephrotic syndrome now has a dramatically different prognosis than it did 10 years ago. We can now effectively treat all types and achieve remission in many cases.

      Disease-modifying therapies have been a big advance in multiple sclerosis, but many patients still experience a variety of symptoms that reduce quality of life. We have to treat the whole patient.
