Guillain–Barré syndrome (also called "GBS") is a rapid-onset muscle weakness caused by the immune system damaging the peripheral nervous system. [3] Typically, both sides of the body are involved, and the initial symptoms are changes in sensation or pain often in the back along with muscle weakness, beginning in the feet and hands, often spreading to the arms and upper body.

Typically for an OCB analysis, the CSF is concentrated and the serum is diluted. After this dilution/concentration prealbumin appears as higher on CSF. Albumin is typically the dominant band on both fluids. Transferrin is another prominent protein on CSF column because its small molecular size easily increases its filtration in to CSF.
Similarly, raised CSF protein levels and pleocytosis are frequent but non-specific. It was originally thought [5] that raised CSF protein without pleocytosis ('albuminocytological dissociation') was a characteristic feature, as it is in Guillain–Barré syndrome, but this has not been supported in more recent work.

Also anti-GM1 IgG has been identified in Guillain–Barré syndrome or chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. [19] while controlled studies failed to find any significant association with Motor neuron disease. [20] IgA. IgA to gangliosides have been observed in Guillain–Barré syndrome. IgM. IgM antibodies have been ...
The finding of erythrophagocytosis, [33] where phagocytosed erythrocytes are observed, signifies haemorrhage into the CSF that preceded the lumbar puncture. Therefore, when erythrocytes are detected in the CSF sample, erythrophagocytosis suggests causes other than a traumatic tap, such as intracranial haemorrhage and haemorrhagic herpetic ...
Here's how we compiled the list: We pored through 30-year average snowfall statistics of hundreds of locations in the U.S. from 1991 through 2020. We considered only those towns and cities with a ...
Acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) is a variant of Guillain–Barré syndrome. It is characterized by acute paralysis and loss of reflexes without sensory loss. Pathologically , there is motor axonal degeneration with antibody-mediated attacks of motor nerves and nodes of Ranvier .
