Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy in Patients With Crohn's Disease on Infliximab Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that is frequently accompanied by systemic complications including peripheral neuropathies. Anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha agents such as infliximab are an established treatment for immune-mediated diseases. However, they have been associated with adverse effects, including local reactions, infections, congestive heart failure, malignancies, and, rarely, they can cause neurological adverse effects on the central nervous system, as well as peripheral nervous system demyelination. Here, we report the case of an 80-year-old man with CD on infliximab therapy who presented with progressive weakness and numbness. A neurological examination and a nerve conduction study suggested chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). The patient was started on oral corticosteroids and experienced transient improvement of his symptoms at the end of this course. Thus, CIDP could be one of the extraintestinal presentations of CD.
