Dantrolene for the Treatment of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy-Induced Painful Muscle Spasms: A Case Report.
Article in A&A practice, 2025. 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
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare neurological disorder that causes progressive weakness, sensory dysfunction, and often debilitating muscle spasms and pain. A man in his early 30s with a history of Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with chemotherapy developed neurologic symptoms initially misdiagnosed as chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. A diagnosis of CIDP was subsequently confirmed by nerve conduction studies. Despite treatment with muscle relaxants, benzodiazepines, botulinum toxin injections, and opioids, the patient's muscle spasms remained refractory. Dantrolene was then introduced at 25 mg orally 4 times/d, resulting in a significant reduction in the frequency and intensity of muscle spasms.
