Diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis by respiratory function test
Multidisciplinary Respiratory Medicine, 2023 The diagnostic criterion for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) based on the findings of concomitant clinical and electrophysiological evidence of upper and lower motor neuron involvement may remain unsatisfied for months and in some patients, even for years in the early stage of the disease. Since respiratory involvement is an onset symptom of ALS in
