Abstract
78 patients with motor neuron disease (MND) were examined. Prevalence of MND in urban population of Novosibirsk on 2008/01/01 is 3,46 per 100 000 of population. In majority of patients amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) was revealed — 76 people (97,4%); primary lateral sclerosis was revealed in 1 case (1,3%), progressive bulbar paralysis was revealed also in 1 case (1,3%). There were 63 men (80,8%) and 15 women (19,2%) (ratio is 4,2 : 1,0). There was no people younger than 27 years for the moment when first symptoms of the disease were revealed. The major age group was 41 to 60 years (66 people — 84,6%).
