CIDP Diagnostic Pitfalls and Perception of Treatment Benefit
Neurol 85:498-504, Allen, J.A. & Lewis, R.A., 2015
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
CIDP misdiagnosis is common. Over-reliance on subjective patient-reported perception of treatment benefit, liberal electrophysiologic interpretation of demyelination, and placing an overstated importance on mild or moderate cytoalbuminologic dissociation are common diagnostic errors. Utilization of clear and objective indicators of treatment efficacy might improve our ability to make informed treatment decisions.
