Cerebrospinal fluid markers in incident pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis: a nationwide study

Abstract To investigate whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) markers differ between pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (PoMS, onset < 18 years) and adult-onset (AoMS), and whether these markers are associated with clinical outcomes among PoMS. Prospective nationwide registry study of incident MS, in...

Prospective nationwide registry study of incident MS, including persons with a CSF sample < 3 years post-MS onset. We compared CSF oligoclonal band (OCB) status, immunoglobulin G (IgG) index levels, and mononuclear cell count between PoMS and AoMS. Within the PoMS cohort we analyzed the association between CSF markers, relapse rate and Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score, using negative binomial regression and generalized estimating equations, respectively. The cohort consisted of 130 PoMS and 3228 AoMS cases. The PoMS group had higher odds of OCB-positivity (odds ratio: 2.70; 95% CI 1.21–7.67). None of the CSF markers were associated with relapse rate in the PoMS cohort; however, OCB-positivity was associated with higher EDSS scores. This study suggested that PoMS more commonly display CSF evidence for intrathecal IgG production than AoMS. Further, we found evidence of a relationship between OCB-positivity and subsequent disability, suggesting that they could play a role in the prognostication of MS in children.Kyla A.
