Pyridostigmine Treatment for Pediatric Axonal Guillain-Barré Syndrome. [PDF]

Muscle Nerve
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Direct involvement of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in the inflammatory process of Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) has been described. Despite this, the NMJ very rarely serves as a target for direct medical intervention in GBS.

International Guillain-Barré Syndrome Outcome Study (IGOS): protocol of a prospective observational cohort study on clinical and biological predictors of disease course and outcome in Guillain-Barré syndrome [PDF]

, 2017
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute polyradiculoneuropathy with a highly variable clinical presentation, course, and outcome. The factors that determine the clinical variation of GBS are poorly understood which complicates the care and treatment of

Brucella melitensisinfection associated with Guillain–Barré syndrome through molecular mimicry of host structures [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2005
Brucella melitensis is a facultative intracellular bacterium that can survive inside macrophages and the causative agent of brucellosis. In the present study, we found that a lipooligosaccharide of B. melitensis has a GM1 ganglioside-like structure and shows a strong antibody response in mice. The cholera toxin B subunit, which binds to GM1 ganglioside

Guillain-Barré syndrome: a century of progress [PDF]

, 2016
In 1916, Guillain, Barré and Strohl reported on two cases of acute flaccid paralysis with high cerebrospinal fluid protein levels and normal cell counts — novel findings that identified the disease we now know as Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS).

Neonatal Fc receptor promoter gene polymorphism does not predict pharmacokinetics of IVIg or the clinical course of GBS [PDF]

, 2016
Treatment of Guillain-Barré syndrome with a standard course of high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) results in a variable clinical recovery which is associated with changes in serum IgG levels after treatment. The neonatal Fc-receptor protects IgG
