Resumen
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease resulting in demyelination and neuronal degeneration. Among the multiple risk factors that contribute to MS progression, malnutrition plays a pivotal role in the impact and quality of life of MS patients. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nutritional status and dietary habits on daily function and well-being of patients presenting relapsing-remitting (RR), primary progressive (PP) and secondary progressive (SP) MS forms. Methods: A cross-sectional observational design was used in this work. The nutritional status of MS patients was determined by collecting anthropometric measurements (weight, height and Body Mass Index:BMI), dietary (Mini Nutritional Assessment, MNA) and clinical (biochemical serum parameters: glucose, cholesterol, lipids and proteins) data. Health-related and disablement outcomes were assessed by the questionnaires comprising the Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale (MSIS-29) and the Expanded Disability Status Scale (ESDD), respectively.
