Résumé

Background: Fatigue is a common complaint in patients with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) and reduces quality of life. Several hypotheses for the pathogenesis of fatigue in MS are proposed ranging from neurological lesions to malnutrition, but none has been conclusively validated through clinical research. Objectives: The goal of this study was to examine the correlation between fatigue and nutritional status and dietary habits in PwMS. Methods: This was a cross-sectional, multicenter study conducted at 10 French MS centers and enrolling PwMS with an Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score between 0 and 7. Plasma level of albumin, magnesium, calcium, iron, vitamin D and B12 evaluated nutritional status. A semi-structured eating behavior questionnaire has been developed to evaluate dietary habits. Evaluation of fatigue used specific questionnaire (EMIF-SEP). Quality of sleep was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS), depression with Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II); dysphagia by DYsphagia in MUltiple Sclerosis questionnaire (DYMUS) and taste disorders by gustometry. Association between nutritional deficiencies and different data such as socio-demographic data, disease characteristics, swallowing and taste disorders, food intake, depression and sleep quality was investigated. Results: A total of 352 patients mean age: 48.1±10.1 years, mean duration of MS: 15.3±9.1 years and median EDSS: 4 were analyzed. Bivariate and multivariate analyses showed a statistically significant correlation between fatigue and depression and use of sleeping pills, while none of the variables related to dietary habits or nutritional status correlated significantly with fatigue. Conclusions: Dietary habits and nutritional status have little impact on fatigue and general population nutrition recommendations remain the rule for PwMS. In cases of fatigue, specific attention should be paid to depression and use of sleeping pills.
