Abstract
A sub analysis revealed significant differences between Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) variants. The axonal form was associated with a history of gastrointestinal infection and greater muscle weakness (strength < 3 on the clinical scale), whereas AIDP was more frequently linked to prior respiratory infections. These findings highlight the clinical value of patient history in suspecting the axonal subtype, which is relevant for early management and prognosis in GBS.
