General demographic information (including employment status), medical/ surgical history, and health behaviours (e.g. smoking, family history, and social history) are assessed through questionnaires.

Neurologic examinations are performed. Cognitive measures of disability progression include the Timed 25-Foot Walk, Nine Hole Peg Test, and Processing Speed Test.

Information is collected from electronic medical records about multiple sclerosis (age/year of diagnosis and symptom onset, diagnostic testing, clinical course), use of MS-specific drug therapies, comorbidities, quality of life, functional status (Activities of Daily Living and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living), employment status, and disability progression (Expanded Disability Status Scale).
