肌萎缩性侧索硬化症（ALS）的疼痛和治疗方法在文献中研究甚少。本研究的目的是研究监督和家庭锻炼计划对ALS患者肌肉骨骼疼痛的影响，采用回顾性设计。研究参数为疼痛强度、肌肉僵硬度、力量和缩短。26例门诊ALS患者被纳入监督（n=13）和家庭锻炼（n=13）计划。在基线、第8周和第16周进行评估。结果表明，有监督的锻炼计划，包括加强，拉伸和功能活动训练，对疼痛，肌肉僵硬，力量和缩短有积极的影响。
Pain and management methods in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are poorly investigated in the literature. The aim of this research is to study the effects of supervised and home exercise programs on musculoskeletal pain in ALS patients, in a retrospective design. Investigated parameters were pain intensity, muscle stiffness, strength and shortening. 26 ambulatory ALS patients were included in the supervised (n=13) and home exercise (n=13) programs. Evaluations were performed at the baseline, at the eighth and sixteenth weeks. Results indicate that supervised exercise program, which included strengthening, stretching and functional mobility training had positive effects on pain, and on muscle stiffness, strength and shortening.
