Serum IgG antibody to ganglioside GQ1b is a possible marker of Miller Fisher syndrome
Abstract
We studied serum anti‐glycolipid antibodies by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay and thin‐layer chromatography–enzyme immunoassay in six consecutive patients with typical Miller Fisher syndrome. In all six, increased activity of IgG antibody against ganglioside GQ1b was present in the early phase and reduced with time, whereas such activity was not detected in normal control subjects and disease control subjects including those with Guillain‐Barrë syndrome. Anti‐GQ1b IgG antibody is a new possible diagnostic marker of Miller Fisher syndrome and could well be related to the disease process itself.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
