Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) can be described as a collection of clinical syndromes that manifests as an acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy with...

2023年2月7日 · Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare but serious post-infectious immune-mediated neuropathy. It results from the autoimmune destruction of nerves in the peripheral nervous system causing symptoms such as numbness, tingling, and weakness that …

Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare, but potentially fatal, immune-mediated disease of the peripheral nerves and nerve roots that is usually triggered by infections. The incidence of GBS can therefore increase during outbreaks of infectious ...

2014年7月15日 · Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is a potentially life-threatening postinfectious disease characterized by rapidly progressive, symmetrical weakness of the extremities. About 25% of...

2023年10月1日 · Objective: This article summarizes the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, pathogenesis, and prognosis of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), with insights into the current and future diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for …

Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS) refers to a group of acute, autoimmune polyneuropathies. This chapter is predominantly about AIDP, AMAN, and AMSAN – since these are most often encountered in the ICU. However, the pharyngeal-cervical-brachial variant and facial-diplegia-with-paresthesia variant are also important to be aware of, as they might ...

2025年1月23日 · The acute immune-mediated polyneuropathies are classified under the eponym Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) after some of the authors of early descriptions of the disease. GBS is one of the most common causes of acute, acquired weakness and is often provoked by a preceding infection.

Background: Diagnostic criteria for the Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) have been available since 1978. Since then, several variants have been described. More recently, a distinction has been made between pure motor forms, severe sensory forms, primary axonal and primary demyelinating varieties.

Differentiation of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and acute-onset chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuritis (CIDP) might be intricate in early stages. We compared electrodiagnostics (EDx) and nerve ultrasound (NUS) as tools for early distinction and follow-up. NUS and EDx have been performed at first visitation and after 6 months.

2013年6月1日 · GBS can be subdivided in the acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP), the most frequent form in the western world; acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN), most frequent in Asia and Japan; and in Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS). Additionally, overlap syndromes exist (GBS-MFS overlap).
