Journal of Coronary Heart Diseases

Objectives: The Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is a cause of acute flaccid paralysis mainly in young and middle-aged adults and commonly requires admission to an intensive care unit. Manifestations of the GBS vary from monoparesis to life-threatening progressive ascending paralysis with the involvement of the respiratory muscles. The latter often accompanied with cardiac involvement.
There is a wide range of clinical cardiac manifestations: from signs of autonomic dysfunction (labile blood pressure, oscillations in heart rate) to the involvement of the myocardium and potentially fatal arrhythmias.
Materials and methods: We present a case of a patient with GBS complicated with ventricular tachycardia. The accompanying review of the literature underlines the wide spectrum of cardiac complications in this entity.
Results and Conclusions: A thorough review of the literature shows rare reports of a wide spectrum of cardiac abnormalities, with no reported spontaneous VT. We suggest that careful cardiac assessment of patients with GBS be performed including continuous ECG monitoring as well as measurement of cardiac enzymes and 2-D Echocardiography.

This report was based on clinical findings from a population with terrible hard labor and inadequate food 6 decades ago. Thiamin was found essential in body energy regeneration, curable for many heart disorders including hypertension, and dramatically eliminating lipoma. Only thiamin 300 mg plus 1 ampule of VB Co. were injected twice daily in a case of severe coronary heart disease and cured. Another 32 patients were then followed. As the result of continuous 180-300 injections within 3-5 months, there was an initial non-responding stage about 3-8 weeks without improvement of cardiac signs possibly due to reducing the lipid/cholesterol blockers or blood cell debris. Once an interval was found, lipid/cholesterol removal by thiamin would be progressed gradually or dramatically for totally 3-5 months until cardiac signs completely free for 2-4 years. No other routine medicine was required. The associated abnormalities were eradicated including kidney cyst, panic state, Parkinson syndrome, nail-layering, peripheral neuritis. It could be “refueled” with only vitamin B1 after a certain period if restenosis returned. Although all regular medicine was canceled, associate hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes were normalized or obviously reduced and diabetes greatly improved in measured cases. Thus, update by multiple institutes is required.
