Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with a variety of neurologic manifestations, including Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), but few pediatric cases have reported. We would like to present case GBS in association recent COVID-19 infection that presented an isolated clinical facial nerve palsy.

BACKGROUND Patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome are commonly exposed to prolonged mechanical ventilation. Specific data on ventilatory management of these patients have been limited. OBJECTIVE To describe the practice of mechanical ventilation in patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome and evaluate risk factors for morbidity and mortality. METHODS We describe a historical cohort of mechanica...

OBJECTIVE Molecular mimicry between Campylobacter jejuni lipo-oligosaccharides (LOSs) and human gangliosides GM1 and GD1a induces the production of anti-GM1 and anti-GD1a antibodies, and the development of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Complexes of two different gangliosides form new molecular shapes capable of enhancing recognition by anti-ganglioside antibodies. To test the hypothesis that the com...
