First, the ice bucket challenge. More people may think that the ice bucket challenge is a game, and the rules of the game are simple. Those who accept the challenge need to pour a bucket of ice water on themselves within 24 hours and record videos and upload them to social networks. If you can't accept this challenge or complete the task, you will donate 100 to ALS charity. After completing the challenge, you can also name others. The feeling of ice water drenching the body is very similar to the real situation of patients with gradual freezing, so it will attract people's attention.
Second, gradually freezing people. Gradually freeze? Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of motor neurons in spinal crest, brain stem and motor cortex, and its main clinical manifestations are progressive skeletal muscle weakness, atrophy, muscle tremor, bulbar palsy and pyramidal tract sign.
It is precisely because of this gradual muscle atrophy and weakness that it eventually paralyzes, so it will be called a gradually frozen person. Although he has a clear consciousness, he can't change his sense of powerlessness that he can't control his body.
Third, gradual freezing cannot be cured. Operation Golden is an incurable and rare disease, which can only be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. At present, it can only delay the disease and cannot be completely cured. Therefore, the significance of the ice bucket challenge lies in the hope that people will pay more attention to this group, and pharmaceutical companies can also develop more such drugs, so as to better make active and effective treatments.
