1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Autoimmune-mediated disorders belong to the main causes of neuropathies worldwide. During recent years much progress has been achieved in the understanding of the underlying pathomechanisms, associated with implications for therapeutic approaches. Here we will briefly review the pathogenesis and discuss treatment options of the Guillain-Barré syndrome, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, multifocal motor neuropathy, and neuropathies associated with paraproteinemias. In most of these disease entities intravenous immunoglobulins play a major role as effective and safe treatment options.
