Essay / Research Paper Abstract
6 pages in length. Considered both rare and potentially fatal, Guillain-Barre Syndrome is suspected to develop after certain vaccinations but most recognizably in the aftermath of a number of different viral and bacterial infections, particularly in the gastrointestinal region. Guillain-Barre - which impacts neurological function and causes limb weakness that typically starts in the legs and moves upward - has not historically been associated with the aftermath of dengue fever. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Guillain-Barre - which impacts neurological function and causes limb weakness (Null et al, 2007) that typically starts in the lower extremities and eventually moves upward into the arms, neck and
trunk (Sulekha et al, 2004) - has not historically been associated with the aftermath of dengue fever but was detected immediately after a recent dengue epidemic in India; moreover, Sulekha
et al (2004) point out that even more unusual than that is how the syndrome has not been identified in children prior to the three case reports they profile.
The object of their account is to chronicle the occurrence of Guillain-Barre as it developed post-dengue fever in two toddlers under the age of three and one child eight years
of age. Each case report summary concludes with many of the same symptomatic common denominators found at the onset and progression of Guillain-Barre
Syndrome including headache, limb weakness (both arms and legs) and rash, but each child also presented with his/her own unique indicators such as neck & trunk involvement and vomiting (two-and-a-half
year old); tripping, voice change, difficulty swallowing, inability to sit up in bed (eight-year-old); and inability to stand from the onset with eventual inability to sit up at all, as
well as limited head control and an unstable palate (one-and-a-half year old). Each of the three children had recently experienced a bout of dengue fever and presented with Guillain-Barre
Syndrome between one and two weeks later. All of them recovered fully over the following month once treated with intravenous gammaglobulin, the most effective therapy used for addressing this
