title: [Cyto-dynamic observations on T lymphocytes and the CSF in Guillain-Barre syndrome].
abstract: We have examined by ANAL for 107 times in 45 cases and the cytology of CSF in 92 times for acute infectious polyneuritis. The count of T-lymphocytes in severe and most severe types had a marked decrease comparing with the light and moderate types. The patients with a course of disease less than seven days had a significant decreasing to comparing with the more than seven days. The immune complex (IgG, IgM, Cs) had a distinct decreasing. The cytology of CSF showed that the lymphocytes were decreasing but the monocytes and the macrophages increased. We considered that there were not only cellular immunity dysfunction, but also the humoral immunity dysfunction. Using of hormones in this disease is not suitable.
