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
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare, immune-mediated disorder in which an aberrant immune response causes demyelination and axonal damage of the peripheral nerves. Genetic contribution to CIDP is unclear and no genome-wide association study (GWAS) has been reported so far. In this study, we aimed to identify CIDP-related risk loci, genes, and pathways. We first focused on CIDP, and 516 CIDP cases and 403,545 controls were included in the GWAS analysis. We also investigated genetic risk for inflammatory polyneuropathy (IP), in which we performed a GWAS study using FinnGen data and combined the results with GWAS from the UK Biobank using a fixed-effect meta-analysis. A total of 1,261 IP cases and 823,730 controls were included in the analysis. Stratified analyses by gender were performed. Mendelian randomization (MR), colocalization, and transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) analyses were performed to identify associated genes. Gene-set analyses were conducted to identify associated pathways. We identified one genome-wide significant locus at 20q13.33 for CIDP risk among women, the top variant located at the intron region of gene CDH4. Sex-combined MR, colocalization, and TWAS analyses identified three candidate pathogenic genes for CIDP and five genes for IP. MAGMA gene-set analyses identified a total of 18 pathways related to IP or CIDP. Sex-stratified analyses identified three genes for IP among males and two genes for IP among females. Our study identified suggestive risk genes and pathways for CIDP and IP. Functional analyses should be conducted to further confirm these associations.
