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

rationaleChronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is a disorder characterized by a symmetrical, sensorimotor involvement and slowly progressive onset peripheral neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathies have been reported in some central demyelination patients. However, the central nervous system focus in the CIDP patient can mimic neuromyelitis optica have not been recognized by most of us. PATIENT CONCERNS: The numbness and weakness of limbs about eight weeks. DIAGNOSES: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy.

interventionsImmunotherapy with intravenous immunoglobulins was applied to this patient. OUTCOMES: After 1 year follow-up, the results showed there was still slight numbness of all limbs, and he could walk slowly without help. Gastrocnemius muscle atrophy did not aggravate. LESSONS: So It is suggest that CIDP can combine with central lesions mimicking neuromyelitis optica. We should take the diagnosis of CIDP into consideration when we find focus in central nervous system.
