Although previous studies have provided reference for the diagnosis and treatment of ALS, the etiology of ALS is still unknown, and the relevant clinical features and natural history of ALS still lack the verification of large samples. Therefore, the research on the natural history of ALS is of great significance to further increase the understanding of ALS and provide new evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of ALS
