Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Age at onset (AAO) is an essential clinical feature associated with disease progression and mortality in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Identification of genetic variants and environmental risk factors influencing AAO of ALS could help better understand the disease's biological mechanism and provide clinical guidance. However, most genetic studies focused on the risk of ALS, while the genetic...
