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 polyneuropathy (CIDP) is an immune-mediated demyelinating disease of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). A small number of CIDP patients harbors autoantibodies against nodal/paranodal proteins, such as neurofascin 155 (NF155), contactin 1, and contactin-associated protein 1. In most cases, the predominant immunoglobulin (IgG) subclass is IgG4. Node/paranode antibody-positive CIDP demonstrates distinct features compared with antibody-negative CIDP, including a poor response to intravenous immunoglobulin. The neuropathology of biopsied sural nerve shows Schwann cell terminal loop detachment from axons without macrophage infiltration or inflammation. This is partly attributable to IgG4, which blocks protein-protein interactions without inducing inflammation. Anti-NF155 antibody-positive (NF155
