    Three causes of motor neuron disease.

    1. Genetic factorsGenetic factors are a typical cause of motor neuron disease, because the incidence of this disease itself is very low, and after statistics, 5% to 10% of people suffer from this disease because of family inheritance, so genetic factors cannot be ignored.

    2. Immune factors MND may also be caused by abnormalities in the immune system, the symptoms caused by this immune factor can be clearly found through serum examination The abnormal condition of antibodies and immune complexes in the body can be clearly found through serum examination, and the disease caused by this factor needs to be carried out in time, because problems with the immune system will not only cause motor neuron disease, but also cause some other complications if not controlled in time, and the damage to the body is very large.

    3. Viral infectionVirus infection is a very common one that causes motor neuron disease, if the patient's physical fitness is relatively poor, it is very susceptible to the invasion of various viruses, which will be infected by the virus and cause motor neuron disease, so when it is found that the body is infected by the virus, it should be actively carried out, otherwise the delay will increase the difficulty of the disease.

    MND can manifest as weakness and atrophy of the limbs, clumsiness and weakness of finger movements, muscle weakness and atrophy over the course of the disease, extending to the trunk and neck, and finally involving the facial and throat muscles. Patients may have bulbar paralysis, mostly in the late stage, the tongue muscles are first involved, manifested as tongue muscle atrophy, fasciculation, and tongue protrusion weakness, followed by pharyngeal, laryngeal, and masticatory muscle atrophy and weakness, resulting in the patient's slurred arthria, dysphagia, chewing weakness, and the orbicularis oculi muscle in the facial muscle is more obviously involved. 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.

    Motor neuron disease is mainly caused by genetic factors. One in 10 motor neuron cases is genetic, and adults are chromosomally dominant.

    It may also be due to some immune factors, although serum tests in people with motor neuron disease show a lot of antibodies and immune complexes. However, immune factors are one of the typical factors that induce MND, and toxic factors are also strongly associated with MND. Viral infections, due to acute poliopathy, are predisposed to cause motor neuron disease.

    Therefore, once the symptoms of motor neuron disease appear, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for systematic examination as soon as possible, and then carry out symptomatic treatment after clarification.

    Motor neuron disease** and its pathogenesis, the cause is currently unknown.

    However, in some older men, patients with a history of trauma are more likely to be induced. Other studies have shown that these patients are genetically affected by infections and immune, metal and nutrient deficiencies, and neurotransmitter abnormalities. Motor neuron disease is unknown, so there is no good prevention method and means, mainly some symptomatic treatment, so motor neuron disease should try to avoid infection, because the infection period is easy to aggravate the symptoms.

    It is necessary to ensure a certain amount of exercise appropriately, pay attention to more sunlight, calcium supplementation, family help massage muscles and active activities to avoid muscle atrophy. Riluzole is taken early to delay the course of the disease and prolong the survival of patients with bulbar palsy.

    The cause of MND is still unknown, but it is believed that it is the result of a combination of genetic and environmental factors that lead to the occurrence of MND.

    First of all, let's talk about genetic factors, and more than a dozen genetic mutations have been found to be related to the occurrence of motor neuron disease.

    Current research has shown that some environmental factors are associated with the occurrence of MND, such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, trauma, agricultural labor, rural life, electrical injuries, ionizing radiation, excessive exercise, smoking, and industrial raw materials.

    Motor neuron disease (MND) is currently a group of chronic progressive neuropathy diseases that selectively invade the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, motor neurons of the brainstem, pyramidal cells of the cortex, and pyramidal tract of the spinal cord.

    There is no special means for this situation, and in general, it can only be treated symptomatically to delay the development of this disease, and the commonly used ones are vitamin E, vitamin B, coenzyme, citicoline, and then stem cell transplantation technology.

    The pathogenesis of motor neuron disease, which is not fully understood, may be related to a variety of factors:

    Clause. 1. Infection and immune disorders.

    Clause. 2. Poisoning or lack of elements by certain heavy metals.

    Clause. 3. Genetics.

    Clause. Fourth, malnutrition.

    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.

    There is still a lack of drugs that can effectively reverse or control the progression of the disease. The motor neuron disease pathogen is diverse and affects each other, so it must be a combination of multiple methods. The ** of motor neuron disease includes **, symptomatic ** and various non-pharmacos**.

    The clinical manifestations of motor neuron disease are muscle weakness and muscle atrophy, and the differentiation is mainly different from diseases with the same manifestations; Myasthenia gravis is mainly characterized by morning and evening heaviness and proximal muscle weakness, such as upper arm, respiratory muscle and other muscle weakness, which can be distinguished; In addition, it is also necessary to distinguish it from muscle atrophy and metabolic diseases, such as progressive muscular dystrophy, glycogen storage disease, and onchondrial brain disease, which can be distinguished by electromyography and muscle MRI. Motor neuron disease is mainly symptomatic.

    Motor neuron generally needs to go to the hospital for electromyography examination to be confirmed, and at the same time, it is necessary to cooperate with a cerebrofusion examination, if there is an abnormality after the examination, it must be given as soon as possible to give neuroprotective drugs**, if there is a more serious phenomenon, surgery can be given**, and at the same time, it is necessary to maintain a comfortable mood to avoid excessive mood fluctuations.

    Motor neuron is also known as ALS, as the name of the disease suggests, patients will gradually appear as if they are "frozen", and the patient will gradually develop from limb weakness to muscle atrophy; The limbs gradually develop from the hands and feet, and eventually to the torso. Patients may experience dyspnea, dysphagia, and most eventually die of paralysis of the respiratory muscles. At present, Western medicine does not have a good method for motor neurons, but there is no way for motor neurons, and choosing the right professional method as soon as possible plays a vital role in motor neurons.

    Motor neuron is an incurable disease, and the most important thing is to treat the symptoms**, so that it will slowly recover.

    Motor neuron disease (MND) is often characterized by changes in the hand, and patients can clearly feel weakness in the hand, and many patients will have clumsy and stiff fingers, and this phenomenon will be accompanied by a certain degree of hand muscle atrophy and muscle tremors. With the passage of time and the aggravation of the disease, it will gradually spread throughout the body, and the most common symptoms of muscle atrophy will appear starting from the pectoral muscles, back, and calf area. As the disease progresses, the symptoms of weakness and atrophy will gradually spread to all limbs, and eventually they will lose the ability to take care of themselves, and their mobile life will need to be taken care of by their families.

    The pathogenesis of motor neuron disease is not clear, and there are many hypotheses, such as genetic mechanisms, oxidation, excitotoxicity, neurotrophic factor disorders, autoimmune mechanisms, etc., and the current consensus is that oxidative damage and excitotoxicity on the basis of genetic background jointly damage motor neurons.

    Motor neuron symptoms worsen over time, affecting normal quality of life. Therefore, it is also necessary to detect early and respond in time**. Motor neurons have a great impact on life, but with a reasonable **, the development of their disease can be controlled and it can return to the standard of living of a normal person.

    The early symptoms of MND are not obvious, so many patients in the early stages are difficult to detect. The general course of the disease progresses slowly, but some types may progress more rapidly. Depending on the site of injury, the clinical manifestations are a different combination of muscle weakness, amyotrophy, and dysphagia.

    What are the typical symptoms of MND?

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    The first symptoms are clumsiness and weakness of one or both fingers, finger stiffness, followed by atrophy of the small muscles of the hand;

    As the disease progresses, muscle atrophy extends to the forearms and lower limbs, and finally affects the face and throat, with significant fasciculations in the affected area;

    In the advanced stage of the disease, weakness of tongue protrusion, difficulty swallowing, weakness in chewing, and slurred speech may occur;

    In a few cases, muscle weakness and muscle atrophy may begin in the lower extremities;

    Generally, there are no objective sensory disorders, but there are often subjective sensory disorders, such as numbness.

    Progressive amyotrophy.

    The first symptom is atrophy and stiffness of small muscles in one or both hands;

    progressive involvement of the forearm, upper arm, and shoulder girdle muscles;

    The atrophy of the affected muscles is obvious, the muscle tone is reduced, and fasciculations, tendon reflexes, and pathological reflexes are seen.

    Sensory system and sphincter dysfunction are generally absent.

    Progressive bulbar palsy.

    slurred pronunciation, hoarseness, dysphagia, choking on water, weakness in chewing, and loss of gag reflex;

    Sensory system and sphincter dysfunction are generally absent.

    Primary lateral sclerosis.

    The first symptoms are symmetrical stiffness and fatigue in both lower extremities, and walking with a scissor gait.

    Progresses slowly and gradually affects the upper extremities.

    Muscle tone in the extremities is increased, and muscle atrophy and fasciculations are generally absent.

    The sensory system and sphincter are not affected.

The early stage of motor neuron disease is characterized by gradual muscle atrophy and weakness in one part of the patient's body, and many diseases have similar clinical manifestations in the early stage, and the age of onset of this disease is between 40 and 60 years old, which is also the stage of high incidence of cervical spondylosis. Many patients with cervical spondylosis can also have unilateral limb muscle atrophy and weakness in the early stage, so many patients mistakenly believe that it is cervical spondylosis, delaying the diagnosis. There is no difficulty in an advanced ALS person, and the diagnosis can be made by simply taking clinical data, but the difficulty in the examination of motor neuron disease is when it is atypical in the early stage, and it may be difficult to determine that it is an area of disease if there is no experience. >>>More
