A Validated Model to Predict Severe Weight Loss in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Severe weight loss in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is common, multifactorial, and associated with shortened survival. Using longitudinal weight data from over 6000 patients with ALS across three cohorts, we built an accelerated failure time model to predict the risk of future severe (≥ 10%) weight loss using five single‐timepoint ...
