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

Anti-contactin-1 (CNTN1) IgG4 antibody-associated nodopathies is an autoimmune antibody-mediated peripheral neuropathy with a unique clinical presentation, pathophysiology, electrophysiology, and therapeutic response. The critical histopathological features are a dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, a storiform pattern of fibrosis, and obliterative phlebitis. Here, a 62-year-old male patient presented with subacute unilateral limb onset, progressive exacerbation, marked weakness of the extremities, cranial, and autonomic nerve involvement. Neurophysiology showed slowed motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV), prolonged distal motor delay (DML), slowed sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV), decreased sensory nerve activity potential (SNAP) amplitude, decreased amplitude of bilateral neuromotor conduction, abnormal cutaneous sympathetic response (SSR) in both lower extremities, axonal damage, prolonged F-wave latency, and discrete waves. In the initial phase, there was a response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), and corticosteroids and rituximab were also effective. After 1 year follow-up, the patient improved significantly. This article reports on a patient with nodular disease with anti-contactin-1 (CNTN1) IgG4 antibodies and reviews the literature to improve clinicians' understanding of the disease.
