MRI biomarkers of proximal nerve injury in CIDP.
Article in Annals of clinical and translational neurology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: To evaluate the utility of nerve diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), nerve cross-sectional area, and muscle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) multiecho Dixon for assessing proximal nerve injury in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Methods: In this prospective observational cohort study, 11 patients with CIDP and 11 healthy controls underwent a multiparametric MRI protocol with DTI of the sciatic nerve and assessment of muscle proton-density fat fraction of the biceps femoris and the quadriceps femoris muscles by multiecho Dixon MRI. Patients were longitudinally evaluated by MRI, clinical examination, and nerve conduction studies at baseline and after 6 months. Results: In sciatic nerves of CIDP patients, mean cross-sectional area was significantly higher and fractional anisotropy value was significantly lower, compared to controls. In contrast, muscle proton-density fat fraction was significantly higher in thigh muscles of patients with CIDP, compared to controls. MRI parameters showed high reproducibility at baseline and 6 months. Interpretation: Advanced MRI parameters demonstrate subclinical proximal nerve damage and intramuscular fat accumulation in CIDP. Data suggest DTI and multiecho Dixon MRI might be useful in estimating axonal damage and neurogenic muscle changes in CIDP.
