背景情况:
- 肌缩侧面硬化症 (ALS) 是一种致命的神经退行性疾病,环境,临床和社会决定因素不明.
- 以前在癌症研究中使用的多步建模,为研究ALS病因提供了潜在的框架.
- 美国国家ALS注册表为研究疾病发生率和进展提供了宝贵的资源.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定肌缩侧面硬化症 (ALS) 是否遵循一个多步骤的过程.
- 将国家ALS注册表中的ALS发病率数据应用于多步建模.
- 研究美国人口中ALS发展背后的潜在机制.
主要方法:
- 从国家ALS注册表 (2012-2019) 中利用事件ALS病例 (确认和可能).
- 计算了所有病例的年龄标准化发病率,并按性别分层.
- 回归了ALS发病率的对病例确定时年龄的对数.
主要成果:
- 在所有参与者和性别之间观察到日志发生率和日志年龄 (r2 ≥ 0.98) 之间存在强烈的线性关系.
- 发病率斜率估计总体约为4.8,男性为4.7,女性为5.0.

Cross-bridge Cycle
118.3K
As muscle contracts, the overlap between the thin and thick filaments increases, decreasing the length of the sarcomere—the contractile unit of the muscle—using energy in the form of ATP. At the molecular level, this is a cyclic, multistep process that involves binding and hydrolysis of ATP, and movement of actin by myosin.

Parkinson's Disease: Overview
713
Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is...

Longitudinal Research
12.5K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
