Clinical and Electrophysiological Studies in Primary Lateral Sclerosis

Hereditary primary lateral sclerosis and progressive nonfluent aphasia

“…In spite of preserved bladder function being considered part of PLS [56], urinary incontinence was present in five of our cases and urinary urgency in the other, as reported in PLS [39,47], the cause being detrusor hyperreflexia and a spastic internal vesical sphincter [59].…”

Primary lateral sclerosis: clinical, neurophysiological, and magnetic resonance findings

“…22 25 More than half of the patients in our group had slightly prolonged conduction velocities or values near the lower limit of normal in both upper and lower limbs. Slowing of MNCV has been found in patients with ALS where a preferential degeneration of the fast conducting myelinated axons in the peripheral nerve is presumed 26.…”

Different Frontal Involvement in ALS and PLS Revealed by Stroop Event-Related Potentials and Reaction Times

“…However, these have not been consistent features. Other authors have reported normal intellectual function in PLS (Russo, 1982; Pringle et al, 1992). …”
