Environmental risk factors and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS): A case-control study of ALS in China
Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease mainly involving central and peripheral motor neurons. The etiology of ALS is not clear. In China, there is a preliminary exploration of genetic factors, but the study on environmental factors is relatively inadequate, which needs to be further clarified. To investigate the protective or harmful effects of different environmental factors on ALS, and explore the possible etiology of ALS of the Chinese for further study. Case-control study were used in 123 patients and 239 healthy controls from 2013 to 2016. Statistical analysis and description were performed with SPSS24.0. The risk factors of ALS include head trauma (OR = 3.397, 95% [1.298, 8.893], P = 0.013), drinking (OR = 1.760, 95% CI [1.110,2.790], p = 0.016), smoking (OR = 3.196, 95% [1.375, 7.427], P = 0.351), low BMI (OR = 1.231, 95% CI [1.115, 1.319], P = 0.000), workers or famers (OR = 2.539, 95% [1.441,4.475], P = 0.001, 30-34 yrs); factors that reduce incidence of ALS including hypertension (OR = 0.526, 95% [0.313, 0.883], P = 0.015), severe physical activities (OR = 0.808, 95% [0.711, 0.918], P = 0.001), longer duration of education (OR = 0.183, 95% [0.078, 0.428], P = 0.000, >12 yrs), reading (OR = 0.225, 95% [0.126, 0.516], P = 0.000, 13-30 yrs), retirement or unemployment (OR = 0.040, 95% [0.005, 0.291], P = 0.000, 30-34 yrs); family history of neurologic disorder, general trauma, years and numbers of smoking, artistic activities, and othe…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
