Prevalence of gastrointestinal symptoms, severity of dysphagia, and their correlation with severity of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in a Mexican cohort.xlsx

This is the data obtained from 43 Mexican patients diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The presence and severity of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and dysphagia were identified by means of the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) and the Functional Outcome Swallowing Scale (FOSS). The Revised ALS Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R) was utilized to determine the severity of ALS. ALSFRS-R scores were divided into two categories: those with mild to moderate ALS (≥40-30 points) and patients with moderate to advanced ALS (29-≤20 points). <br>

本数据集包含43名确诊肌萎缩侧索硬化（amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS）的墨西哥患者的相关数据。研究通过胃肠道症状评定量表（Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale, GSRS）与吞咽功能结局量表（Functional Outcome Swallowing Scale, FOSS），明确了患者胃肠道（gastrointestinal, GI）症状与吞咽困难的存在情况及严重程度；采用修订版ALS功能评定量表（Revised ALS Functional Rating Scale, ALSFRS-R）评估ALS病情严重程度，并将ALSFRS-R评分划分为两类：轻中度ALS患者（评分30~40分）与中晚期ALS患者（评分20~29分）。
