Application of the 2017 McDonald criteria in a Chinese population with clinically isolated syndrome
BACKGROUND: Diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis have evolved over time, with the most recent being the 2017 McDonald criteria. Evidence is lacking regarding the validity of the 2017 McDonald criteria among the Asian population. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance...

description | BACKGROUND: Diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis have evolved over time, with the most recent being the 2017 McDonald criteria. Evidence is lacking regarding the validity of the 2017 McDonald criteria among the Asian population. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the 2017 McDonald criteria in Chinese patients with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS). METHODS: A total of 93 patients with initial findings suggestive of CIS in a tertiary hospital in China from 2012 to 2017 were included in this retrospective study. Baseline and follow-up data were reviewed. Diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, accuracy), was assessed and survival analysis was performed for the 2017 and 2010 McDonald criteria respectively. RESULTS: Among the 93 Chinese patients with CIS, 57 were female (61.3%) and the median (interquartile range) age of onset was 37 (31.3–41.8) years. The 2017 McDonald criteria displayed a higher sensitivity (75.0% versus 14.6%, p < 0.0001), lower specificity (47.1% versus 100.0%, p < 0.05) but an overall higher accuracy (67.7% versus 36.9%, p < 0.0001) when compared with the 2010 iteration. The novel criteria allow for a better detection of MS at baseline (40.8% versus 9.9%, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: The 2017 McDonald criteria had a higher sensitivity but lower specificity than the 2010 iteration. Overall it facilitated an earlier and more accurate diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in Chinese patients with CIS. |
