Grip strength in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis research

From 2021 to 2025, 33 animal research papers on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mentioned grip strength in their title or abstract.

That is 1.3 times the 26 papers of 2011 to 2015. Between the same two periods, the papers on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis that mention any of the 90 tests we count grew faster, to 1.5 times as many.

Which species the papers used

Each bar is a share of the 33 papers from 2021 to 2025. A paper can use more than one species, so the shares can add to more than 100%.

Species

30 papers 91%
Rat

Other animals
1 paper 3%

“Other animals” counts papers that use none of the species this chart names.

Tests mentioned alongside grip strength

Each bar is one test, with how many of the 33 papers also mention it, and what share that is. Of these papers, 14 (42%) mention no other test.

Which papers count

A paper counts here when it is animal research, mentions grip strength in its title or abstract, and studies amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

We tell whether a paper studies amyotrophic lateral sclerosis from its MeSH terms, the subject headings the National Library of Medicine adds when it indexes a paper. For a paper without MeSH terms, PubTator 3, NCBI's text-mining service, has to find the disease in the title or abstract. A paper can count under more than one disease model. A paper that mentions the test only in its methods is missed, so the count runs low.

The page on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis research names the subject headings we count as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Download the test list for the search terms we used for grip strength, or the paper list for the PubMed ID of every paper behind these counts. Our main page, Behavioral tests in published research, has the full method and each source's terms of use.
