Correlation of CCM parameters in the inferior whorl area with disease severity and progression in ALS. CCM, corneal confocal microscopy; ALS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; IWL, inferior whorl length; IWDC, dendritic cell density in the inferior whorl area; disease severity was based on the Revised ALS Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R); disease progression was calculated by ΔFS, the declining rate of ALSFRS-R at assessment (ΔFS = (48-ALSFRS-R)/disease duration from symptom onset to the assessment)
