Predicting of Mechanical Ventilation and Outcomes by Using Models and Biomarker in Guillain-Barre Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory neuropathy. The Erasmus GBS Respiratory Insufficiency Score (EGRIS) and the modified Erasmus GBS Outcome Score (mEGOS) are prognostic models used in the prediction of mechanical ventilation and outcome. Thus far, there are only few biomarkers for the prognosis prediction of GBS patients, and albumin level is one that is promising.

Methods

Patients diagnosed with GBS from 2013 to 2022 at Renmin Hospital, Wuhan University, China, were included. Patients hospitalized between 2016 and 2022 underwent short- and long-term follow-ups. The correlations between EGRIS/mEGOS and mechanical ventilation and outcome were evaluated. Serum albumin level was examined the day after admission. Furthermore, we also investigated w
