David B. Nelson, Robert Holman, Eugene Hurwitz, Lawrence B. Schonberger, Dennis J. Bregman and Richard A. Kaslow

Center for Disease Control, Atlanta, Georgia. Accepted for publication December 6, 1978.

The preliminary results of the national surveillance for Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) are reported. In the first 6 months of 1978, 327 cases of GBS were reported to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). A statistically significant difference was observed between sex-specific attack rates, and a direct correlation also was observed between advancing age and increasing risk of GBS.
