Biomarkers of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Zhurnal nevrologii i psikhiatrii im. S.S. Korsakova, 2022
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that has no effective treatment. To date, ALS is considered as a multifactorial heterogeneous disease, in which the death of motor neurons is a final result of the different pathological pathways.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2010
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a common neurological disorder that results in loss of motor neurons, leading to a rapidly progressive form of muscle paralysis that is fatal. There is no available cure and current therapies only provide minimal benefit at best.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1980
Therapeutic trials for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have attracted much attention, but no drug tested has been effective yet. Three major theories of pathogenesis form the basis for these trials: autoimmunity, chronic excitotoxic stimulation due to accumulation of glutamate, and, in the familial form, peroxidation due to subnormal activity of ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

2019
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is caused by selective and progressive loss of spinal, bulbar and cortical motoneurons and leads to irreversible paralysis, loss of speech, inability to swallow and respiratory malfunctions with the eventual death of the affected individual in a rapid disease course.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Seminars in Neurology, 1998
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a motor neuron disease with evidence of both anterior horn cell and corticospinal tract degeneration. The incidence of ALS is 1 to 2.5 cases per 100,000 population and the disease occurs primarily in adult life. The etiology of sporadic ALS remains unknown, although 5 to 10% of cases are familial. The diagnosis of

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
More than a century after its initial clinicopathologic description, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains a largely fatal, progressive neurodegenerative disorder for which few efficacious pharmacotherapies with an impact directly on the natural course of the illness exist. The only currently approved therapy, the antiglutamatergic agent riluzole,

Electronystagmography in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Archives of Neurology, 1983
To the Editor. —We are glad that several authors 1-4 have recently reported eye-movement disorders in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), modifying the classic teaching that oculorotary functions are spared in ALS. It is possible that our 1974 report has not been cited because it appeared in The Laryngoscope , 5 although presentation ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and paraproteinemia

Neurology, 1982
A patient with ALS had an IgG kappa monoclonal gammopathy. This raises the possibility that monoclonal paraproteins may sometimes play a role in the etiology of motor neuron disease.

Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Drugs & Aging, 1999
Survival of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is improving. Timely and more frequent implementation of bimodal passive airway pressure (BIPAP) and percutaneous endoscopically placed gastrostomy (PEG) may be the major factors impacting on longer survival.

The management of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Journal of Neurology, 2009
The terms amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or motor neuron disease (MND) refer to a condition characterized by motor system degeneration with relative preservation of other pathways. Although there have been advances in symptomatic treatment, ALS remains an incurable condition.
