Abstract
Background
Different amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) phenotypes have been recognised, marked by a varying involvement of spinal and bulbar upper and lower motor neurons. However, the differential characteristics of these phenotypes are still largely unknown.
Objective
To define the epidemiology and outcome of ALS phenotypes in a population based setting.
