Favorable Outcomes in a Case of Non-paraneoplastic DNER Ataxia Treated with Immunotherapy.
Article in Cerebellum (London, England), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Anti-DNER antibody is associated with paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) and Hodgkin's disease (HD). However, recent studies reported cases absence of HD and that non-tumor anti-DNER antibody-associated ataxia was not well characterized. We present a case of acute cerebellar ataxia and nystagmus with detected anti-DNER antibody. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed cerebellar atrophy. High titer of anti-DNER antibody was detected in CSF and serum. Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning was unremarkable at a 10-month follow up. The patient improved significantly after immunosuppressive therapy with intravenous steroids, immunoglobulin followed by rituximab. Our study suggest that the presence of such anti-neuronal antibodies might not come along with malignancy and that early onset non-tumor patients are more likely to have a better outcome after immunotherapy. Early diagnosis and timely immunosuppressive therapy may prove beneficial for these patients.
