Abstract
BACKGROUND: Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), a postinfectious autoimmune-mediated neuropathy, is a serious complication after Campylobacter jejuni enteritis. METHODS: To investigate the bacterial risk factors for developing GBS, genotypes, serotypes, and ganglioside mimics on lipo-oligosaccharide (LOS) were analyzed in C. jejuni strains from Japanese patients. RESULTS: Strains from patients with GBS had LOS biosynthesis locus class A more frequently (72/106; 68%) than did strains from patients with enteritis (17/103; 17%). Class A strains predominantly were serotype HS:19 and had the cstII (Thr51) genotype; the latter is responsible for biosynthesis of GM1-like and GD1a-like LOSs. Both anti-GM1 and anti-GD1a monoclonal antibodies regularly bound to class A LOSs, whereas no or either antibody bound to other LOS locus classes. Mass-spectrometric analysis showed that a class A strain carried GD1a-like LOS as well as GM1-like LOS. Logistic regression analysis showed that serotype HS:19 and the class A locus were predictive of the development of GBS. CONCLUSIONS: The high frequency of the class A locus in GBS-associated strains, which was recently reported in Europe, provides the first GBS-related C. jejuni characteristic that is common to strains from Asia and Europe. The class A locus and serotype HS:19 seem to be linked to cstII polymorphism, resulting in promotion of both GM1-like and GD1a-like structure synthesis on LOS and, consequently, an increase in the risk of producing antiganglioside autoantibodies and developing GBS.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
