Summary

In order to increase our understanding about the pathogenic mechanism and the strategy of treatment in the subtypes of Guillain Barré syndrome, we will check the temporal changes of cytokines with different biological activities in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), check the titer of various anti-ganglioside antibodies, perform skin biopsy and correlate these data with the clinical findings such as severity and prognosis
