Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Do brain reserve and cognitive reserve protect against cognitive decline over 4.5 years in MS?
Answer: We provide longitudinal support for theories of brain reserve and cognitive reserve in MS. Larger MLBG protects against decline in cognitive efficiency, and greater intellectual enrichment protects against decline in cognitive efficiency and memory. Consideration of these protective factors should improve prediction of future cognitive decline in patients with MS.
Output (English): yes
