Dynamics of Nerve Conduction Studies in Patients With Guillain-Barré Syndrome. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The value of electrodiagnostic subtyping of Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is still debated. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic yield, timing, and changes of the electrodiagnostic subtyping in patients with GBS in serial nerve conduction studies (NCS).

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

AbstractGuillain–Barre syndrome (GBS) is the leading cause of acute paralysis that can potentially affect all of the human population. GBS is believed to be an immune-mediated disease, possibly triggered by a recent infection, and driven by an immune attack targeting the peripheral nervous system.

Guillain-Barre syndrome is an acute, or more often, a subacutely evolving paralytic disease of unestablished etiology. The condition is often designated as the Landy-Guillain-Strohl syndrome in recognition of the description provided by Landy in 1859 and again in 1916 by Guillain, Barre and Strohl.
