A Esclerose Lateral Primária (ELP) é uma doença neurológica que afeta os neurônios motores (as células nervosas responsáveis pelos movimentos do corpo). Ela não tem causa conhecida e não é hereditária. A doença é marcada por um problema lento e progressivo nos neurônios motores superiores, causando rigidez excessiva nos músculos (espasticidade), fraqueza leve ao fazer movimentos voluntários, reflexos exagerados (hiperreflexia) e dificuldade para falar.

Introdução

O que você precisa saber de cara

💬
EM LINGUAGEM SIMPLES

A Esclerose Lateral Primária (ELP) é uma condição neurológica rara que atinge os neurônios motores superiores, provocando rigidez nos músculos, reflexos exagerados e dificuldades para caminhar e falar. Ela tem evolução lenta, atinge principalmente adultos e idosos e, na maioria das vezes, surge de forma esporádica sem causa hereditária identificada. A doença não possui um PCDT oficial próprio no Ministério da Saúde, de modo que o cuidado no SUS ocorre por meio do atendimento em reabilitação voltado a doenças raras.

Spastic paraplegia 7, autosomal recessive

A form of spastic paraplegia, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a slow, gradual, progressive weakness and spasticity of the lower limbs. Rate of progression and the severity of symptoms are quite variable. Initial symptoms may include difficulty with balance, weakness and stiffness in the legs, muscle spasms, and dragging the toes when walking. In some forms of the disorder, bladder symptoms (such as incontinence) may appear, or the weakness and stiffness may spread to other parts of the body. SPG7 is a complex form. Additional clinical features are cerebellar syndrome, supranuclear palsy, and cognitive impairment, particularly disturbance of attention and executive functions.

MECANISMO DE DOENÇA

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2

A neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5-10% of the cases.

The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis House Call Program: A Single-Center Experience in the United States.

Neurology research international2026

Accessing multidisciplinary care poses challenges for people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) due to mobility issues. As ALS care rarely requires hospital-based technology, most care is available through home visits. The Daniella Lipper ALS House Call Program (HCP) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), launched in 2017 in collaboration with Compassionate Care ALS, has pioneered home-based ALS care in Eastern Massachusetts. A retrospective chart review of ALS and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) patients enrolled in the HCP at MGH was conducted. Data on demographics, visit details, and procedures performed during home visits were collected from electronic health records for patients seen from January 2024 to December 2024. In 2024, the ALS HCP conducted 959 visits for 142 patients (average age: 68 years, range: 36-93; 47.9% female). Of these patients, 137 (96.5%) were diagnosed with ALS and 5 (3.5%) with PLS. Notably, 61 patients (43%) received care exclusively at home. Key interventions included 44 gastrostomy tube exchanges and 59 respiratory assessments, both of which significantly reduced hospital visits. The average distance traveled by the care team was 30.32 miles per visit. The Daniella Lipper ALS HCP at MGH brings ALS expertise into the patient's home, minimizing travel burdens and ensuring continuity of care. The program illustrates the feasibility and impact of home-based ALS care, suggesting potential for broader implementation across the nation. Development will focus on expanding services, such as tracheostomy changes in the homes, and on creating sustainable models for similar initiatives.

TBK1-Associated Primary Lateral Sclerosis Followed by Right Temporal Variant Frontotemporal Dementia.

Annals of clinical and translational neurology2026 Feb 05

We report a 58-year-old woman with a novel splice-site variant in the TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1:c.993-2A>C p.Ala332TyrfsTer39) who sequentially developed primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) followed by right temporal variant frontotemporal dementia (rtvFTD). Neuroimaging demonstrated right anterior temporal atrophy before cognitive symptoms, and prosopagnosia represented the earliest manifestation of rtvFTD. Molecular analysis revealed reduced levels of correctly spliced TBK1 transcripts, consistent with haploinsufficiency. Given the shared involvement of TDP-43 pathology in both PLS and rtvFTD, this case indicates TBK1 dysfunction as a fundamental genetic factor underlying the coexistence of these phenotypes, underscoring the clinical value of early neuroimaging and genetic evaluation.

Demographic, clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis from two specialised centres in Austria.

Journal of neurology2026 Jan 10

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by progressive muscle weakness and ultimately death from respiratory failure. Heterogeneity in disease trajectories and outcomes among patients with ALS (pwALS) is influenced by healthcare access, rehabilitation, and palliative care, but real-world data on demographic and clinical characteristics remain scarce in many countries, including Austria. To characterise the demographic, clinical, and genetic landscape of pwALS in Austria. In this retrospective cohort study, we included pwALS diagnosed according to the Gold Coast criteria and treated at two large tertiary referral centres. Demographic, clinical, and genetic data were extracted from the local ALS registries, and survival was determined via linkage with Statistik Austria, censored in December 2023. A total of 341 patients with motor neuron disease were included (44.9% female), of whom 5% were diagnosed with primary lateral sclerosis and 2.9% with progressive muscular atrophy. Among pwALS (n = 314), spinal onset was most common (67.2%), followed by bulbar onset (29.6%) and respiratory onset (2.5%). Median survival from symptom onset was 36.0 months (IQR 20.0-74.0), with age at onset (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02-1.05; p < 0.0001), diagnostic delay (HR 0.97, 95% CI 0.96-0.98; p < 0.0001), and PEG tube placement (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.50-1.00; p = 0.0478) as the only independent predictors of survival. (Likely) pathogenic variants were identified in 5.5% of patients, including two in SOD1 and one each in C9orf72, OPTN, TARDBP, and FUS. This study provides the first comprehensive description of the demographic, clinical, and genetic characteristics of pwALS in Austria, offering valuable real-world insight into disease presentation and genetic diversity.

The Epidemiology of Primary Lateral Sclerosis: Results from a Population-Based Cohort.

Annals of neurology2026 Mar

In this population-based study, we described the epidemiology of primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) in northern Italy and compared the clinical characteristics of patients with PLS to those with predominant upper motor neuron (PUMN) involvement and classic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Patients from the PARALS registry diagnosed with probable or definite PLS between 2007 and 2021 were included. Crude annual incidence rates were calculated, along with age- and sex-specific rates. A survival analysis was performed to identify prognostic factors at diagnosis. Covariates included sex, age at onset, site of onset, diagnostic delay, forced vital capacity (FVC), change in ALS Functional Rating Scale (ΔFRS), and change in body mass index (ΔBMI). A total of 57 PLS patients (2.7%) were included, with a crude incidence rate of 0.084 per 100,000 person-years. Compared to PUMN and classic ALS, PLS patients were younger (median onset age 63.5 years, interquartile range [IQR] 54.9-70.4) and predominantly female (male-to-female ratio 0.58). Bulbar onset occurred in 11 cases (19.3%), all of whom later developed spinal symptoms. At censoring, 38 patients (66.7%) were still alive (median survival 8.3 years, IQR 5.7-12.3), corresponding to a point prevalence of 0.89 per 100,000. Survival was significantly associated with age at onset (hazard ratio [HR] 1.17, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-1.33, p = 0.001), male sex (HR 4.41, 95% CI: 1.24-15.6, p = 0.02), and FVC at diagnosis (HR 0.95, 95% CI: 0.93-0.98, p = 0.006). PLS was confirmed to be rarer than other ALS phenotypes. Patients had a higher age at onset than previously reported and a female predominance. Sex, age at onset, and respiratory function were key prognostic factors. ANN NEUROL 2026;99:606-613.

Primary Lateral Sclerosis Natural History Study: Primary Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale and Other Outcomes Assessment.

Annals of neurology2026 Feb

The primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) consensus diagnostic criteria and functional rating scale (PLSFRS) were recently established to facilitate and optimize future PLS clinical trials. We examined the trajectory of the PLSFRS and other functional outcome measures and biomarkers in the PLS Natural History Study (PLS NHS) to understand their performance in this prospective cohort. The PLS NHS is a prospective, longitudinal, multicenter study of people living with PLS in different diagnostic categories: early (disease duration <2 years); probable (2-4 years); and definite PLS (4-15 years). PLSFRS scores and other functional outcome measures were collected at baseline, 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month follow-up visits. Baseline characteristics were compared between the groups. The slopes of the PLSFRS and other functional outcome measures over 12 months were examined in the overall cohort and subgroups using linear mixed-effect models. The associations between baseline characteristics and the rate of PLSFRS decline were analyzed with linear regression models. A total of 76 participants were included: early (n = 6); probable (n = 26); and definite (n = 44) PLS. Baseline PLSFRS total scores were highest in the early PLS group, followed by the probable and definite PLS groups. In the overall cohort, the PLSFRS total score declined by 0.33 points/month (95% confidence interval [0.27-0.39], adjusted p < 0.05). The rate of decline was steepest in the early PLS group, followed by the probable and definite PLS groups. Baseline neurofilament light chain level was associated with the rate of PLSFRS decline over 1 year (p = 0.001). In PLS, the rate of functional decline, as measured by the PLSFRS total score, is faster during the early phase of the disease. Neurofilament light might serve as a prognostic biomarker in PLS.
