| Abstract |
Retrospective review of medical records from patients with multiple sclerosis to collect data on severity of fatigue, disability, daytime sleepiness, and depression. From 912 medical records reviewed, 122 reported daytime sleepiness: 67% had relapsing remitting, 12% had primary progressive, and 21% had secondary progressive. In 95% of the patients with relapsing remitting who complained of daytime sleepiness and fatigue, association was found between these symptoms and neurological disability. Patients with relapsing remitting who complained of daytime sleepiness and fatigue also experienced depression (p = 0.001). No association between fatigue, excessive daytime sleepiness, depression, and disability was found in patients with progressive disease. In relapsing remitting, there is correlation between functional disability, excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue, a finding not confirmed in primary progressive and secondary progressive form. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 June 2016.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
#1,140
of 1,368 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#309,352
of 353,658 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
#19
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,368 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 353,658 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
