Dynamic markers of altered gait rhythm in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disorder marked by loss of motoneurons. We hypothesized that subjects with ALS would have an altered gait rhythm, with an increase in both the magnitude of the stride-to-stride fluctuations and perturbations in the fluctuation dynamics. To test for this locomotor instability, we quantitatively compared the gait rhythm of subjects with ALS with that of no...
متن کاملAmyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in a Patient with Behçet’s Disease
Behçet’s disease is a multisystem vasculitis. Its neurological involvement mostly includes parenchymal and non-parenchymal central nervous system manifestations. Peripheral nervous system presentations are rare. A 32-yr-old male patient who fulfilled the international study group criteria for Behçet’s disease, referred to our center with walking difficulty and repeated falling downs. Neurologi...
متن کاملEnergy Homeostasis and Abnormal RNA Metabolism in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal motor neuron disease that is clinically characterized by progressive muscle weakness and impaired voluntary movement due to the loss of motor neurons in the brain, brain stem and spinal cord. To date, no effective treatment is available. Ample evidence suggests that impaired RNA homeostasis and abnormal energy status are two major pathogenesis path...
متن کاملEvaluation of Multiple Standard Laboratory Parameters in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of all patients diagnosed with “probable,” “probable — laboratory supported,” and “definite” ALS, seen in the Wake Forest ALS Clinic from May 2009-May 2012. The following test results were analyzed in 105 individuals with ALS: anti-nuclear antibody, calcium, creatine kinase (CK), c-reactive protein, copper, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),...
متن کاملThe Investigation of Factors Affecting the Gait of the Patients Suffering From Multiple Sclerosis
Objective Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory, demyelinating, and neurodegenerative disorder of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and it is also the most common cause of non-traumatic neurological disability in young adults. MS in women, especially young women, is about 1.5 to 3 times more common than men all over the world. About 2.5 million people worldwide are suffering from MS....
