Abstract Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS)is the most common neurological disease that causes disability in the nervous system which reduces the quality of life(QoL). Studies have shown positive effects of therapeutic exercise with supplementation on motor- and cognitive functionandfatigue as well as on QoLin persons with MS. The purpose of this study was to the effect of home-based aerobic training (AT) and vitamin D(Vit D) supplementation on fatigue and QoL in patients with MS during the covid-19 outbreak. Methods: We recruited 40 females (20 - 40 years) with MS(EDSS: 3-5). Then, using simple randomization, the subjects were assigned to four groups including aerobic training (AT; n=9; 50%-75%, 20-40 min/day, 3 days/wk aerobic training), vitamin D supplementation (Vit D; n=9; 50,000 IU one day/week), aerobic training plus vitamin D supplementation (AT + Vit D; n=10), and sedentary control (C; n=10 placebo). The data were analyzed using paired t-test and one-way analysis of variance and Tukey’s post hoc test with SPSS21 at a significance level of P < 0.05.Results: After eight weeks of intervention, fatigue grade markedly reduced in the AT + Vit D, AT, and Vit D groups); However, fatigue increased in the control group. QoLincreased significantly in AT+Vit D, AT, and Vit D compared to C. Also, the results show that the AT+Vit D had significantly higherQoL compared to AT and Vit D. Conclusion:These findings suggest that therapeutic AT and VitD supplementation is very effective in reducing fatigue and consequently improves the QoLin female MS patients.

Vitamin D has a promising role in multiple sclerosis (MS) management, and it has been found to be beneficial for patients’ mental health, which is reduced in MS patients. The aim of the present study was to conduct a systematic review of the literature to assess the influence of vitamin D supplementation on mental health in MS patients. The systematic review was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42020155779) and it was conducted on the basis of the PRISMA guidelines. The search procedure was conducted using PubMed and Web of Science databases and it included studies published up until September 2021. Six studies were included in the systematic review. The risk of bias was analyzed using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS). Within the included studies, there were two studies randomized against placebo and four other prospective studies. The studies presented vitamin D interventions randomized against placebo or not randomized, while supplementation was applied for various durations—from 4 weeks to 12 months, or the studies compared patients who applied vitamin D supplementation and those who did not apply it and verified the effect of the supplementation after a number of years. The mental health outcomes that were assessed included quality of life, depression/depressive symptoms, and fatigue as an additional element. The majority of studies supported the positive influence of vitamin D on the mental health of MS patients, including the study characterized as having the highest quality (randomized against placebo with the highest NOS score). All the studies that assessed the quality of life indicated the positive influence of vitamin D while the studies that did not find a positive influence of vitamin D were conducted for depression/depressive symptoms. In spite of the fact that only a small number of studies have been conducted so far, and only two studies were randomized against a placebo, some conclusions may be formulated. The systematic review allowed us to conclude that there may be a positive effect of vitamin D supplementation in MS patients, which was stated in all of the studies analyzing quality of life, as well as in one study analyzing depressive symptoms. Considering that vitamin D deficiency is common in MS patients, and the potential positive influence of supplementation on the quality of life, supplementation should be applied at least in doses that cover the recommended intake.
