“…However, RCF is not limited exclusively to GBS after this particular infectious agent. Both patients had anti-GD1b antibodies in high titers which are linked to sensory involvement [9,10]. Both patients were also anti-GT1a positive, which appears relevant in this context of initial, severe and predominant pharyngeal and cervical involvement, as found in the PCB variant [15].…”

“…RCF is thought to be due to a transitory limited attack of antiganglioside antibodies at the axolemma of the nodes of Ranvier not progressing to axonal degeneration [4,7,8]. More recently RCF has also been described in sensory fibers and other GBS variants such as acute sensory ataxic neuropathy and the pharyngeal-cervical-brachial (PCB) variant [9][10][11]. MFS is for its part, usually associated with virtually exclusive axonal sensory loss, electrophysiologically [12][13][14].…”

“…Both demyelinating and axonal forms can occur. The presence of anti-ganglioside antibodies in the serum, albeit rarely reported in post-influenza GBS, seems to be more frequent in the axonal variant of the disease [8,10,12]. Axonal involvement detected on ENG, older age, motor impairment severity, and the need for assisted ventilation have all been found to be predictors of a poorer outcome [9].…”

“…Im Gegensatz hierzu gibt es jedoch auch mehrere Fallberichte, die auf einen zeitlichen Zusammenhang mit einer Influenzaimpfung hinweisen [13,69,91]. Bemerkenswerterweise werden bei GBSFällen , die in einem zeitlichen Zusammenhang mit einer Influenzaimpfung auftreten, vorangegangene Infektionen weniger häufig dokumentiert als bei GBS-Fällen ohne zeitlichen Zusammenhang mit einer Influenzaimpfung.…”

“…Diese Annahme wird gestützt durch Fallberichte, die zeigten, dass nach Influenzaimpfung aufgetretene Fälle von GBS und Miller-Fisher-Syndrom mit Antikör-pern gegen GD1b [1,91] Diese Daten stellen eine wichtige Verbindung zu einer pathologischen Autoimmunreaktion (gegen GM1) her, von der bekannt ist, dass sie bei passivem Transfer im Tiermodell einige der pathologischen Merkmale des GBS hervorruft. Dennoch bleiben wichtige Fragen ungeklärt: So induzierten alle getesteten Vakzinen Antikörper gegen GM1, auch solche, die nicht mit einem höheren GBS-Risiko assoziiert waren.…”
