Serum antibodies to GM1, GD1b, peripheral nerve myelin, and <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> in patients with Guillain‐Barré syndrome and controls: Correlation and prognosis

Abstract excerpt

Serum antibodies to monosialoganglioside (GM1), disialoganglioside (GD1b), and Campylobacter jejuni, measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and serum antibodies to peripheral nerve myelin, measured by the C1 fixation and transfer assay, were studied in 58 acute-phase patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), 42 disease controls, and 29 normal controls. Anti-peripheral nerve myelin antibodies were...
