Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has been linked to neurological disorders such as microcephaly in children. Cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), a peripheral nervous system (PNS) disorder, have been reported in adults with ZIKV infection. These ZIKV-related GBS cases often exhibit atypical clinical features compared to classic GBS, including central nervous system (CNS) involvement. This dataset comprises two patient groups and a healthy control group. The first patient group includes adults with confirmed ZIKV infection, presenting both PNS-related GBS symptoms and CNS manifestations. The second group consists of adults with GBS but without ZIKV infection. The final group includes healthy, unaffected individuals.
