- The study aimed to investigate how cerebrospinal fluid total protein and serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio relate to clinical outcomes and variations in Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS).
- Conducted in Pakistan with 46 GBS patients, the results indicated that axonal variants had a higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio compared to other types, and this ratio was significantly linked to disability and respiratory issues.
- The findings concluded that the serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is a reliable indicator of disease severity in GBS, while cerebrospinal fluid total protein levels were not effective in predicting the same.
