Background and Purpose No previous studies have investigated the relationship betweenvarious anti-ganglioside antibodies and the clinical characteristics of Guillain-Barré syndrome(GBS) in Korea. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and types of anti-ganglioside antibodies in Korean GBS patients, and to identify their clinical significance. Methods Serum was collected from patients during the acute phase of GBS at 20 universitybased hospitals in Korea. The clinical and laboratory findings were reviewed and compared withthe detected types of anti-ganglioside antibody. Results Among 119 patients, 60 were positive for immunoglobulin G (IgG) or immunoglobulin M antibodies against any type of ganglioside (50%). The most frequent type was IgG anti-GM1 antibody (47%), followed by IgG anti-GT1a (38%), IgG anti-GD1a (25%), and IgG anti-GQ1b (8%) antibodies. Anti-GM1-antibody positivity was strongly correlated with the presenceof preceding gastrointestinal infection, absence of sensory symptoms or signs, and absence ofcranial nerve involvement. Patients with anti-GD1a antibody were younger, predominantlymale, and had more facial nerve involvement than the antibody-negative group. Anti-GT1a-antibody positivity was more frequently associated with bulbar weakness and was highly associated with ophthalmoplegia when coupled with the coexisting anti-GQ1b antibody. Despite the presence of clinical features of acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN), 68% of anti-GM1- oranti-GD1a-antibody-positive cases of GBS were diagnosed with acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) by a single electrophysiological study. Conclusions Anti-ganglioside antibodies were frequently found in the serum of KoreanGBS patients, and each antibody was correlated strongly with the various clinical manifestations. Nevertheless, without an anti-ganglioside antibody assay, in Korea AMAN is frequentlymisdiagnosed as AIDP by single electrophysiological studies.
