About Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis-Parkinsonism/dementia Complex 1, also known as guam disease, is related to frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 3 and frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2, and has symptoms including tremor, bradykinesia and abnormality of extrapyramidal motor function. An important gene associated with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis-Parkinsonism/dementia Complex 1 is TRPM7 (Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel Subfamily M Member 7), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Neuroscience and Copper homeostasis. The drugs Varenicline and Riluzole have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include bone marrow, spinal cord and brain, and related phenotypes are muscle weakness and dementia

Major Symptoms of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting. The major symptoms include:

1. Muscle stiffness and rigidity

2. Bradykinesia (slowness of muscle movement)

3. Dystonia (irregular muscle stiffness)

4. Myotonic dystrophy ( muscle stiffness and spasms)

5. Progressive muscle weakness and wasting

6. Reduced muscle mass

7. Decreased function of the heart and lungs

8. Difficulty swallowing and feeding

9. Decreased mobility and balance

10. Decreased quality of life.

Suitable Lifestyle for People with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Suitable lifestyle options for people with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) include:

1. Maintain a positive attitude: ALS is an incurable disease, but patients can try to adopt a positive attitude to face the disease, such as optimism, confidence, Perseverance etc.

2. Keep exercising: Appropriate exercise can improve the body's immunity, relieve disease symptoms, and reduce patients' fatigue and stress.

3. Reasonable diet: Patients need to control their diet, avoid high-protein, high-fat, high-salt and other foods, while ensuring adequate vitamins and minerals.

4. Maintain social activities: Patients can participate in some social activities, such as contacting family, friends, patient organizations, etc. , which can help reduce loneliness and stress.

5. Receive professional treatment: Patients need to seek medical treatment promptly and receive professional treatment, such as medication, physical therapy, rehabilitation, etc.

6. Learn relaxation techniques: Patients can learn some relaxation techniques, such as meditation, deep breathing, yoga, etc. , which can help reduce the symptoms of the disease and relieve stress.

7. Pay attention to rest: Patients need to pay attention to rest to avoid overexertion, which can help reduce disease symptoms and restore body functions.
