    The most common form of motor neuron disease is also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS. Motor neurons dominate the body's muscle movements, and when motor neurons change, the muscles slowly contract and die, thus invading the respiratory system, leading to quadriplegia and difficulty swallowing. Here's an analysis of what MND is all about.

    1. Motor neuron disease, as the name suggests, is a clinical symptom caused by the gradual apoptosis of motor neuron cells in the human nervous system. Motor neuron nuclei include: brain center, brainstem nerve nucleus, medulla oblongata, anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, etc.

    Motor neuron disease is characterized by a single violation of the motor neuron system, and the patient loses motor function and can only communicate through the eyes or fingers, but the brain is still very intact.

    2. Motor neuron disease is a chronic progressive neurodegenerative disease with unexplained motor neuron cell reduction and apoptosis, which is clinically divided into progressive muscle atrophy, progressive spinal muscle atrophy and progressive bulbar atrophy. Progressive muscle atrophy is mainly muscle weakness of the upper limbs, fasciculations, muscle atrophy, and gradually develops to the muscles of the whole body, and severe cases can lead to paralysis, paralysis of respiratory muscles, and the patient eventually dies of respiratory failure. Progressive spinal muscle atrophy is mainly manifested as limb muscle weakness, fasciculations, and muscle atrophy, which is related to the lesion segments of the spinal cord; Progressive bulbar atrophy is mainly manifested as dyspnea, dysarthria, etc.

    3. Motor neuron disease is mainly manifested by muscle pulsation, atrophy and pyramidal tract signs, which are more common in middle-aged and elderly men. People with MND can be paralyzed within three to five years, and when the respiratory muscles are affected, they may experience breathing difficulties, which can be life-threatening if the condition progresses further.

    The above is an analysis of what is going on with motor neuron disease, and it can be seen that when patients have motor neuron disease, they will have limb muscle weakness and muscle atrophy, and in severe cases, it will lead to paralysis, respiratory muscle paralysis and other diseases, and it is hoped that patients can pay attention to motor neuron disease, detect it as soon as possible, and ** as soon as possible, so as not to endanger their own life safety.

    Motor neuron disease (MND) is a degenerative disease of the nervous system, which is generally caused by lesions of upper and lower motor neurons, causing a series of chronic progressive symptoms of the nervous system. The more common is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which affects both upper and lower motor elements, causing muscle weakness, atrophy, bulbar palsy, and pyramidal tract signs, but sensory nerves are not affected, and bowel and bowel movements are normal. The disease generally begins in middle age and varies in duration, with a higher prevalence in men than in women between 2 and 10 years.

    The nervous system of the human body is composed of neurons and the nerve fibers they emit, which is responsible for motor function called motor neurons, and the disease that occurs when motor neurons are damaged is called motor neuron disease, which includes a group of diseases, the most common is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS, and others include progressive bulbar palsy, primary lateral sclerosis and progressive amyotrophy.

    The cause of this group of diseases is unknown, and motor neuron damage will progress gradually, and it has not been possible to do so far. The main clinical manifestations are gradual progression of muscle weakness and atrophy, of which progressive bulbar palsy progresses the fastest, often within 1 to 2 years of diagnosis, with paralysis of respiratory muscles or death from lung infection. Progressive amyotrophy and primary lateral sclerosis progress more slowly and can survive for 10 years or more.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis usually occurs within 3-5 years, and it also dies from respiratory muscle paralysis or lung infection.

    Motor neuron disease is a neurodegenerative disease that primarily affects the motor system and not the sensory system. Motor neuron disease (MND) also invades upper and lower motor neurons, and often begins with weakness of the small muscles in one hand, accompanied by atrophy, and gradually progresses to other limbs, eventually affecting the respiratory and swallowing muscles, causing dyspnea and swallowing.

    Motor neuron disease often progressively worsens, the course of the disease is about 3-5 years, you can come to Beijing Renxuan TCM to find Sheng Jinqiangfu**, through Yiyuan Muscle Formula one-to-one conditioning, can improve the patient's symptoms.

    There is often a pattern of disease progression in MND, usually from the upper extremity that is first affected, then to the contralateral upper extremity, to the ipsilateral lower extremity, to the contralateral lower extremity, and finally to the bulb involvement. Motor neuron disease can be life-threatening, mostly within 3 to 5 years, death from respiratory muscle paralysis or lung infection, so motor neuron disease is more harmful. You can come to Beijing Renxuan Traditional Chinese Medicine to find Sheng Jinqiangfu**, and through one-to-one conditioning of Yiyuan Muscle Formula, the patient's symptoms can be improved.

    Mixed form of upper and lower motor neuron disease. Usually the first symptom is hand muscle weakness and atrophy, which generally starts from one side and then spreads to the opposite side, and with the development of the disease, there are mixed symptoms of upper and lower motor neuron damage, which is called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In the late stage of the disease, the muscles of the whole body are emaciated and atrophied, so that they cannot raise their heads, have difficulty breathing, and are bedridden.

    The disease usually occurs between the ages of 40 and 60, and about 5 to 10% have a family history, and the course of the disease varies in speed and progression.

    Motor neurons are neurons that are responsible for transmitting messages from the spinal cord and brain to the muscles and endocrine glands that innervate organ activity. Motor neuron disease (MND) is a rare disease that is a series of chronic progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by motor neuron changes. At present, the cause of the disease is not clear, and patients present with muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, bulbar paralysis, etc., and usually have no paresthesias.

    The disease mostly occurs in middle-aged and elderly people, and the course of the disease is mostly 2 to 6 years, and most of them have a poor prognosis, and often die of respiratory muscle paralysis or lung infection due to respiratory muscle involvement.

    The activity of human muscles, such as speaking, walking, breathing, and swallowing, are controlled by motor neurons.

    Motor neuron diseases (MND) are unclear conditions in which motor neurons are destroyed in the human body, and may be related to infection, immunity, genetics, nutritional disorders, etc., which lead to the accumulation of toxic substances in the nervous system, thereby damaging motor neurons and causing diseases [2].

    MND is a rare disease, affecting 2 8 per 100,000 people[4], affecting both children and adults[1], usually in middle age, with an increase in incidence after the age of 60 years[1][4]. There are more males than females, and the prevalence ratio is about 1

    Motor neuron disease is divided into four categories: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, progressive amyotrophy, progressive bulbar palsy, and primary lateral sclerosis, with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis being the most common.

    The early symptoms of the disease are not obvious, and many people do not realize that they have the disease. Symptoms usually worsen slowly, with some patients progressing slightly more rapidly [4]. Common symptoms include muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, muscle spasms, difficulty swallowing, choking, slurred speech, etc.

    Diagnosis of MND is based on medical history, physical examination, electromyography, imaging tests, muscle biopsies, etc. Among them, electromyography has great diagnostic value [2]. At present, there is still a lack of effective methods for motor neuron disease, which can only relieve symptoms and alleviate patients' suffering.

    Patients need to pay attention to safety and ensure rest in daily life, and patients who have been bedridden for a long time need to strengthen nursing.

    Motor neurone disease is commonly known as ALS, and the more famous person is Stephen Hawking. Motor neuron disease only invades the locomotor system, it can invade the pyramidal cells of the cerebral cortex, the corticospinal tract, the motor nerve cells of the brainstem, and the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, so it mainly invades the motor system and the sensory system is not affected. MND can be divided into 4 types:

    1. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type, in which the patient's upper and lower motor neurons are affected at the same time;

    2. Progressive muscular dystrophy;

    3. Progressive bulbar palsy, mainly manifested as dysphagia, bulbar symptoms, bulbar symptoms, and mild limb symptoms;

    4. Primary lateral sclerosis; Of these, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is the most common.

    At present, for this kind of motor neuron disease, especially the motor neuron disease represented by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the effect is not very good, and there is generally no specificity. If the economic conditions are good, minoxole** can be used**, but it can only delay the course of the disease, and the patient may die in 3 to 5 years due to dyspnea and inability to eat, so there is no good way for motor neuron disease **, so it is called ALS.
