Summary
This study aims to find specific markers in blood platelets that can help doctors diagnose ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) more accurately and earlier. Researchers will compare 60 participants—30 with newly diagnosed ALS and 30 with other motor neuron diseases—to see if platelet tests can tell them apart. The goal is to develop a routine blood test that speeds up diagnosis and treatment.
