Anti-ganglioside Antibodies in Guillain-Barre Syndrome: A Novel Immunoblotting-Panel Assay

Objective: This study aimed to determine the diagnostic efficiency of a novel immunoblotting detection assay for anti-ganglioside antibodies (AGAs) in the Guillain–Barre syndrome (GBS).Method: Serum immunoglobulin (IgG and IgM) of AGAs were measured in 121 participants from a registered cohort study...
