How frequently does PLS occur? The incidence of PLS is rare, but the exact number is uncertain. ALS affects two individuals per 100,000 each year, and tentative estimates put the annual PLS incidence rate at half a per cent of that number. The median duration of PLS is approximately 20 years, while the duration of ALS is two to five years, so PLS

2018年5月25日 · The criteria for service connection for PLS are met because PLS is shown by the medical evidence to be a variant of ALS, which is presumed incurred during the Veteran's service. 38 U.S.C.A §§ 1110, 1131, 5107 (West 2002); 38 C.F.R. §§ 3.102, 3.303, 3.318 (2012). REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION

2015年3月6日 · PLS doesn't convert to ALS. ALS can appear as PLS during the early years. Generally by year 5 even slow progressing ALS will exhibit lower motor neuron symptoms. Bulbar ALS progresses quickly so they can generally diagnose Bulbar PLS after a few years. It is my experience that PLS progression slows considerably after a period of time.

pls视角下，考虑到（跳高成绩、撑杆跳成绩）实际就是考察运动能力，教练知道运动能力无外乎关系到两个因素：身体素质，运动技巧。 （身高、体重、体脂率、肌肉量）这一组更适合描述身体素质，（训练年限、训练方式）这一组则是运动技巧。

2009年11月5日 · I was diagnosed with PLS 3 years ago. Filed for service connected disability with local VBA, and was denied. Filed again and provided letters from my two Neurologists (one form Mayo), numerous references from respected, reliable, and authoritative sources stating that PLS is a variant of ALS. Denied again at the local VBA office.

2008年1月23日 · My name is Rob and I am 35 yrs old, married and father of three teenage daughters. I was diagnosed with PLS in early 2007 by Dr. Appel. My story begins in 2003. I had back surgery to correct a herniated disc. I had no signs or symptoms of PLS at this point (atleast that I was aware of). My back surgery was a very traumatic experience.

2011年2月2日 · PLS distinctives: PLS does much less collateral damage, and is considered a pure motor neuron disease. It only has 1 or 2 known genetic causes. (Maybe I'll add the 3rd!) It can start in limbs or bulbar, and can progress througout the body. It doesn't seem to be associated with urinary and bowel problems in most cases.

2020年6月13日 · PLS is generally given as a "probable" diagnosis because they give us four years to convert to ALS before giving it as a permanent diagnosis. Most convert to ALS and a small percentage will stay PLS. It is usually confusing if it is a slow progression, but the upside that is even if it is ALS, the progression often stays slow.

2007年10月9日 · I am happy to report that my claim with the Department of Veterans Affairs for PLS as ALS has been granted. This comes after a 6 year battle and a final decision from the Board of Veterans Affairs. I advise all veterans in my situation to keep fighting. The VA is slowly coming around and...

2015年9月11日 · I also have Bulbar PLS. It slowly descended down my body. I walking started being affected after 5 years. I worked with a speech therapist and did exercises for 5 months with no improvement. I then went to a speech therapist that specializes in people with motor neuron diseases (MDA/ALS). She said that speech therapy doesn't work for PLS or ALS.
