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

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an immune-mediated disorder characterized by progressive or relapsing symmetrical motor or sensory symptoms and signs in more than one limb, developing over at least 2 months. It may cause prolonged periods of disability and even death. Evidence from trials suggests that plasma exchange provides significant short-term benefit in about two thirds of patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. This review evaluates the role of plasmapheresis in CIDP.
