Abstract Objective To analyze the correlation of disease severity with antithyroid antibody and thyroid hormone in patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Methods A total of 163 GBS patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2013 to March 2021 were selected. They were classified as mild group (50 cases) and severe group (113 cases) according to the Hughes functional grading scale score. Clinical data of patients were collected, and the correlation between disease severity and antithyroid antibody and thyroid hormone, and the risk factors influencing disease severity were analyzed. Results The course of disease before admission in severe group was shorter than that in mild group, and age, the levels of anti-thyroid peroxidase autoantibody (aTPOAb), and anti-thyroid globulin antibody (aTGAb) were higher than those in mild group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The disease severity of GBS patients was positively correlated with serum aTPOAb and aTGAb levels (r =0.366, 0.394, P < 0.05), but not with thyroid-stimulating hormone level (P > 0.05). Age and aTGAb level were the influencing factors of disease severity (OR > 1, P < 0.05). Conclusion ATGAb is an independent risk factor for disease severity in GBS patients. The older the age, the higher the level of aTGAb, and the more severe the disease of GBS patients.
