Abstract
Objective: In this multicentric study, we were interested in the vision-related quality of life and its association with visual impairment in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) in comparison to multiple sclerosis (MS) and healthy controls.
Methods: We analysed extracted data from the German NEMOS registry including National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ) scores, high and low contrast visual acuity (HCVA, LCVA), visually evoked potentials (VEP) and the scores for the expanded disability status scale (EDSS) and other neurological tests which assessed their disease-related impairment. The mean follow-up time of our patients was 1.2 years. We used adjusted linear mixed effect models to analyse NEI-VFQ differences and interactions with visual acuity among NMOSD, MOGAD, a matched MS cohort and healthy controls.
Results: Despite a younger age in the MOGAD cohort (39 y.o.), vision and socioemotional-related quality of life reduction was similar over all patient subgroups in comparison to healthy controls. The most impacted life quality dimension was general health, followed by general vision, driving and role difficulties. Decline in some of the NEI-VFQ subscales scores is mostly predicted by age. The HCVA was the best predictor for most of the subscales of the NEI-VFQ.
Discussion: Despite important age differences, NMOSD, MOGAD and MS seem to share a rather similar perception on their vision and quality of life impairment, which is overall poorer than that of healthy controls.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Neurology is an international peer-reviewed journal which provides a source for publishing original communications and reviews on clinical neurology covering the whole field.
In addition, Letters to the Editors serve as a forum for clinical cases and the exchange of ideas which highlight important new findings. A section on Neurological progress serves to summarise the major findings in certain fields of neurology. Commentaries on new developments in clinical neuroscience, which may be commissioned or submitted, are published as editorials.
Every neurologist interested in the current diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders needs access to the information contained in this valuable journal.
