Background: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) presents with progressive ascending weakness, but it can also present with dysautonomia such as tachycardia, blood pressure fluctuations, diaphoresis, ileus, and urinary retention. GBS patients with dysautonomia was observed to have longer hospital stays and higher mortality rates than those without dysautonomia. We aimed to determine the risk factors for dysautonomia and its manifestations among patients with GBS and compared their features to those without dysautonomia.

Introduction: In November 2018, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) restricted the use of fluoroquinolones (used by mouth, injections or inhalation) in the context of a referral due to long-lasting and potentially irreversible adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Fluoroquinolones should no longer be used to treat mild or moderate bacterial infections unless other antibacterials cannot be used.
Objectives: The first aim of our study was to analyze whether in the period before compared with after the referral the characteristics of spontaneous ADR reports related to fluoroquinolones differed and whether specific ADRs were more frequently reported for fluoroquinolones compared with cotrimoxazole.
Predictors of the Short-Term Outcomes of Guillain-Barré Syndrome: Exploring Electrodiagnostic and Clinical Features.

Department of Neurology, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Keelung, Taiwan.
Background And Objectives: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), an acute inflammatory disorder of the peripheral nervous system, is characterized by muscle weakness and paralysis. Prompt identification of patients at a high risk of poor outcomes is crucial for timely intervention. In this study, we combined clinical data with nerve conduction study and electromyography data to identify the predictors of GBS outcomes.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that primarily affects the respiratory system but can also lead to neurological complications such as Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). This case report describes an eight-year-old boy with COVID-19-associated GBS involving multiple cranial nerves (third, seventh, and ninth) without pulmonary symptoms. The patient initially presented with flu-like symptoms along with right facial paralysis, which progressed to bilateral facial paralysis, limb weakness, and sensory loss.
