Although multiple sclerosis (MS) affects both women and men, women are more susceptible to MS than men. Accumulating evidence indicates that the incidence and prevalence of MS is increasing, more so in women than in men. Owing to pregnancy, differing hormonal states and distinct social roles, the impact of MS differs between women and men. Since Patricia K Coyle published a review on gender issues in MS, multiple studies have added to the body of knowledge. This update will summarize the current thinking on gender-related issues in MS and we will address incidence and prevalence, hormonal factors, pregnancy and breastfeeding, genetics, course and prognosis, imaging, treatment and psychosocial aspects. Future progression within this field will help elucidate the cause of and define the treatment of MS.

Background. Multiple sclerosis (MS) has become a disease that represents a tremendous burden on patients, families, and societies. The exact etiology of MS is still unclear, but it is believed that a combination of genetic and environmental factors contribute to this disease. Although some meta-analyses on the association between smoking and MS have been previously published, a number of new studies with larger population data have published since then. Consequently, these additional critical articles need to be taken into consideration. Method. We reviewed articles by searching in PubMed and EMBASE. Both conservative and non-conservative models were used to investigate the association between smoking and the susceptibility to MS. We also explored the effect of smoking on the susceptibility to MS in strata of different genders and smoking habits. The association between passive smoking and MS was also explored. Results. The results of this study suggest that smoking is a risk factor for MS (conservative model: odds ratio (OR) 1.55,

Background and Objective The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a standardized self-administered instrument used to evaluate subjective sleep quality. The objective of our study was to translate this scale into Moroccan dialect and assess its reliability and validity among healthy and non-clinical individuals.Methods The original version of the PSQI was translated into Moroccan dialect following the standard guidelines. The final version was administered to 120 healthy volunteers (medical students, nursing staff, and doctors). The participants filled out the final questionnaire containing the PSQI translated version and the Insomnia Severity Index validated in Moroccan dialect two times within 10 days. We studied the acceptability and internal reliability of the scale by using the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. With respect to the test-retest reliability, we used the intra-class correlation coefficient (95% confidence interval) and the kappa coefficient. Convergent validity was studied by the Pearson’s correlation coefficient between the Insomnia Severity Index total score and the PSQI total score.Results The translated version of the scale was quite acceptable. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.61. The intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.61 (95% CI 0.491–0.707), while the kappa coefficient was 0.77. The correlations between the items of each questionnaire and its score showed good to strong positive correlations. The majority of the correlations between the components and the total score were greater than 0.30, and they ranged from 0.302 to 0.481. The analysis of convergent validity showed significant correlations between the Insomnia Severity Index score and the global score of the translated the PSQI.Conclusions The Moroccan version of PSQI shows good validity and reliability compared to the original English version among the general population. We should further test its validity in patients with psychiatric disorders.
