- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Expression profiles will be observed specific for ALS and/or disease<br /><br>progression. Findings can be translated into diagnostic tools. The genetic<br /><br>study will identify DNA variants related to ALS specific expression profiles<br /><br>leading to new insights into the genetic basis of disease susceptibility and<br /><br>progression.</p><br>
