Environmental exposure to pesticides and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in the South of Spain
Objective
To determine if there is a relationship between environmental exposure to pesticides and the prevalence of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in Andalusia.
Method
We carried out a case–control study using the logistic regression method to verify the relationship between the prevalence of ALS in the area exposed to pesticides versus the unexposed area, through the Odds Ratio statistical test.
Results
The study population consisted of 519 individuals diagnosed with ALS between January 2016 and December 2018 according to the CMBD (Minimum Basic Data Set) as cases. In the control group, we have 8,384,083 individuals obtained from data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE). The Odds Ratio (OR) was used as a measure of association between cases and controls, obtaining an OR between 0.76 and 1.08 for the confidence interval of the CI (95%).
Conclusions
Despite the existence of various studies that suggest a possible association between environmental exposure to pesticides and the risk of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, our analysis of the Andalusian population did not find significant evidence of this association.

Neurología es la revista oficial de la Sociedad Española de Neurología y publica, desde 1986 contribuciones científicas en el campo de la neurología clínica y experimental. Los contenidos de Neurología abarcan desde la neuroepidemiología, la clínica neurológica, la gestión y asistencia neurológica y la terapéutica, a la investigación básica en neurociencias aplicada a la neurología. Las áreas temáticas de la revistas incluyen la neurologia infantil, la neuropsicología, la neurorehabilitación y la neurogeriatría. Los artículos publicados en Neurología siguen un proceso de revisión por doble ciego a fin de que los trabajos sean seleccionados atendiendo a su calidad, originalidad e interés y así estén sometidos a un proceso de mejora. El formato de artículos incluye Editoriales, Originales, Revisiones y Cartas al Editor, Neurología es el vehículo de información científica de reconocida calidad en profesionales interesados en la neurología que utilizan el español, como demuestra su inclusión en los más prestigiosos y selectivos índices bibliográficos del mundo.
