--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract
Epidemiological studies relating antecedent trauma and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) demonstrate a contradiction:positive (but poorly structured) retrospective case-control studies and negative (but uninterpretably small) prospective cohort studies. In this report, the equations for the case-control odds ratio and cohort relative risk in populations with heterogeneous susceptibility to ALS are analyzed. The case-control odds ratio and cohort relative risk converge as the proportion of ALS-nonsusceptible individuals in a population ! increases and the rate of ALS in nonsusceptible individuals decreases. Cohort studies of antecedent trauma and ALS have no significant advantage over case-control studies in populations in which most individuals are relatively nonsusceptible to ALS. Accordingly, the relationship between antecedent trauma and ALS can be addressed by carefully defined case-control studies.

For more than half a century, anecdotal case reports have suggested a relationship between antecedent trauma and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) [1-4]. Epidemiological investigation into the issue of antecedent trauma and ALS, however, has produced contradictory results: positive (but poorly structured [5]) retrospective case-control studies [6,7] and negative (but uninterpretably small [5]) prospective cohort studies [8]. Kurland et al [5] stated that "only prospec! tive evaluation of a large cohort of trauma victims can provide an unbiased answer to this controversy," but "such an evaluation would be prohibitively expensive, and the results would not be available in our lifetime." These statements imply that properly constructed and carefully defined case-control studies may offer the only practical means of resolving the issue of antecedent trauma and ALS.
Case-control studies are characteristically efficient with respect to the investment of time and money, while cohort studies are time-consuming and expensive [9]. Consequently, recognizing those situations in which cohort studies provide little advantage over case-control studies would have significant practical importance. For example, cohort studies provide little advantage over case-control studies involving rare conditions [9]. The following analysis suggests that cohort studies of antecedent trauma and ALS should have no significant advantage over case-control studies if! the vast majority of the population is relatively nonsusceptible to ALS.

환자들에게 약간의 이익을 증진시키는 결과에 관한 내용이랍니다.
METHOD
Case-control studies compare the proportional history of an exposure in subjects with (cases) or without (controls) a particular disease [9]. For example, epidemiological data in a retrospective case-control study of trauma and ALS can be presented by the following classic 2x2 table: (Table 2)In this table, a represents the number of individuals with both trauma and ALS; b, the number of individuals with trauma but without ALS; c, the number of individuals without trauma but with ALS; and d, the number of individuals without trauma and without ALS. The odds ratio (OR) of trauma among ALS cases compared with controls is given by the (Equation 1)

The Feinstein-Horowitz equations can be used to express the OR in a population consisting of individuals who are either susceptible (s) or nonsusceptible (ns) to a particular disease [10]. The proportions of ALS-susceptible and -nonsusceptible individuals in the population would be Ps and Pns, respectively. The rates of trauma and no trauma would be t and nt, respectively. When trauma is truly antecedent to the onset of ALS, rates of trauma and no trauma should be the same for both ALS-susceptible and -nonsusceptible individuals. Since everyone in a population either experiences trauma or does not, t plus nt must equal 1 (or nt=1-t). Rates of ALS in susceptible individuals with trauma and no trauma are designated Rst and Rsnt, respectively. Since the rate! s of ALS and non-ALS in susceptible individuals must also equal 1, the rates of non-ALS in susceptible individuals with trauma and no trauma are designated 1-Rst and 1-Rsnt, respectively. Finally, rates of ALS in nonsusceptible individuals with trauma and no trauma are designated Rnst and R (nsnt), respectively. Rates of non-ALS in nonsusceptible individuals with trauma and no trauma are designated 1-Rnst and 1-Rnsnt, respectively. The case-control 2x2 Table fortrauma and ALS can be presented using these Feinstein-Horowitz algebraic expressions (Table 1) [10]. For example, the number of cases of ALS and antecedent trauma would be the number of individuals in the study (X) times the sum of two products: (1) the proportion of ALS-susceptible individuals times the rate of trauma times the rate of ALS in traumatized ALS-susceptible individuals and (2) the proportion of ALS-nonsusceptible individuals times the rate of trauma times the rate of ALS in traumatized ALS-nonsusceptible! individuals. Thus, a in the classic 2x2 OR Table becomesX(Ps tRst +Pns tRnst). Substituting the corresponding values for a, b, c, and d into (Equation 1), the Equation forOR becomes: (Equation 2)

This analysis has broader implications than just for trauma and ALS. Although cohort studies provide little advantage over case-control studies involving rare conditions [9], there may be many reasons why a condition is rare. Some disorders may be rare because few in the population are inherently susceptible. Whenever molecular genetic studies identify genes that are associated with enhanced diseas! e susceptibility and genetic epidemiological studies determine that these genes are relatively rare, then cohort studies of these diseases should offer no significant advantage over case-control studies. This theoretical deduction has significant practical importance for the planning of epidemiological studies at times of fiscal constraint.
