summary: MS generally affects young adults but sometimes children can also be affected. In this study carried out on 51 children with MS, the authors specifically examined the factors related to fatigue and quality of life in this population. They conclude that fatigue and poorer quality of life seem to be related to overall physical disability and that they are of great concern in paediatric MS.
