Read our Multiple Sclerosis research guide →Researchers want to understand the connection between sleep disturbances, fatigue, and thinking problems in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). This study will examine what types of sleep disorders are most common in MS patients who experience fatigue, and measure how sleep problems affect both energy levels and mental performance. By comparing people with MS to a control group, scientists hope to identify which sleep-related issues have the strongest impact on daily functioning.
Many people with MS experience severe fatigue and difficulty concentrating, but it's unclear how much these problems are caused by sleep disturbances. Understanding this connection could help doctors better treat fatigue in MS patients by addressing underlying sleep issues.

As a participant, you would complete a series of tests and evaluations at a sleep medicine clinic. These would include questionnaires about your fatigue and sleep quality, neuropsychological (thinking and memory) tests, and likely overnight sleep monitoring to objectively measure your sleep patterns. The study involves 837 participants total—both people with MS and a control group without MS—so researchers can compare how sleep problems affect each group differently.
