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

backgroundTo investigate Ranvier's autoantibodies prevalence and isotypes in various peripheral neuropathy variants, compare clinical features between seronegative and seropositive patients, and elucidate immune mechanisms underlying antibody generation.

methodsAntibodies against anti-neurofascin-155 (NF155), NF186, contactin-1 (CNTN1), CNTN2, contactin-associated protein 1 (CASPR1), and CASPR2 were identified through cell-based assays. Plasma cytokines were analyzed in anti-NF155 antibody-positive chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (NF155

resultsIn 368 plasma samples, 50 Ranvier's autoantibodies were found in 45 individuals, primarily in CIDP cases (25 out of 69 patients) and in 10 out of 122 Guillain-Barré syndrome patients. Anti-NF155 and CNTN1-IgG were exclusive to CIDP. Fourteen samples were NF155-IgG, primarily IgG4 subclass, linked to CIDP features including early onset, tremor, sensory disturbance, elevated CSF protein, prolonged motor latency, conduction block, and poor treatment response. NF155-IgG had low sensitivity (20.28%) but high specificity (100%) for CIDP, rising to 88.88% with tremor and prolonged motor latency. Cytokine profiling in NF155

conclusionThe study emphasizes the high specificity and sensitivity of NF155-IgG for diagnosing CIDP characterized by distinctive features. Further investigation into circulating NF155-specific B cell phenotypes may pave the way for B cell directed therapy.
