Controlled epidemiological studies have linked it to infection with Campylobacter jejuni in addition to other viruses including cytomegalovirus and Epstein Barr virus. The syndrome includes several pathological ...
متن کاملSensory Guillain-Barré syndrome.
OBJECTIVE To report eight cases of sensory Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). BACKGROUND The concept of sensory equivalent to ascending paralysis of GBS was raised in 1958, and the diagnostic criteria for a sensory loss and areflexia variant of GBS were proposed in 1981. However, clinical cases meeting these criteria have been relatively scarce. METHODS During a 13-year period between 1986 and ...
