73 MS patients were graded on a 5-point Sexual Functioning Scale in the process of routine data collection for the Minimal Record of Disability in MS. 45% of the patients were less sexually active or inactive since the onset of MS. 27% were concerned about this situation. The Demographic features, impairment, disability and handicap profile of patients in the various Sexual functioning Scale categories was analysed. The sexually less active or inactive patients were different from the active-as-before-MS patients in various ways, but most significantly in their difficulties with toilet transfer and bladder functioning. The concerned patients were bladder functioning. The concerned patients were also different from not concerned patient in various ways, but most significantly in their problems with ambulation and in maintaining their usual financial standards. Further studies are required to begin to understand the natural history of sex problems in MS.
在对多发性硬化症（MS）患者进行残疾最小记录的常规数据收集过程中，73名MS患者按照5分性功能量表进行了分级。45%的患者自MS发病以来性活动减少或无性生活。27%的患者对此情况表示担忧。分析了不同性功能量表类别中患者的人口统计学特征、损伤、残疾和障碍情况。性活动减少或无性生活的患者在多个方面与MS发病前性生活正常的患者不同，但最显著的是在厕所转移和膀胱功能方面存在困难。表示担忧的患者在膀胱功能方面存在问题。表示担忧的患者在多个方面也与不担忧的患者不同，但最显著的是在行走和维持其通常财务状况方面存在问题。需要进一步研究以开始了解MS中性问题的自然病程。
