Risk of bias in included studies Figure 2 presents a summary of the 'Risk of bias' assessments of the included studies by the review authors. [cochranelibrary.com]
Neurologic
- Paresis
Primary loss of the myelin sheath, called demyelination, leads to secondary axonal degeneration, resulting in muscular atrophy and paresis (Krajewski 2000; Martini 2001). [cochranelibrary.com]
- Limb Weakness
The most prominent symptom in all forms of CMT1 is progressive distal wasting of peroneal and calf muscles resulting in distal lower limb weakness, beginning in the first or second decade of life (Vallat 2013). [cochranelibrary.com]
Treatment
We assessed treatment effects by meta‐analysis of data using forest plots. We determined the overall treatment effect by the Z‐score. We considered a significance level of P < 0.05 as the threshold for statistically significant treatment effects. [cochranelibrary.com]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology The pathophysiological mechanisms that lead to the clinical phenotype are still unclear for many of the genes implicated in CMT. [cochranelibrary.com]
