Inclusion Criteria
- •Eligible patients have to have signs and symptoms consistent with CIDP according to the diagnostic criteria as defined by a Dutch Consensus group in 1997. These criteria are derived from the much used and cited criteria of the ad hoc subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology AIDS Task Force 1991 but contain a few practical modifications. Only definite or probable CIDP patients will be included.
Exclusion Criteria
- •1. Abnormal erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hemoglobulin, white cell count, immuno-electrophoresis or immunofixation (with the exception of an IgG MGUS), TSH, Vitamin B1/B12, gamma-GT, or glucose
- •2. Pleocytosis in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of more than 90/3 (30/mm^3)
- •3. Received treatment for CIDP before
- •4. Use of drugs which are known to cause neuropathy
- •5. Age under 18 years
- •6. Contraindication for corticosteroid treatment
- •7. Pregnancy or active wish to become pregnant
- •8. Diseases known to cause neuropathy or to reduce mobility
- •9. Diseases known to lead to severe handicap or death at short notice
- •10. Patients with a subacute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (SIDP); this is a subset of patients with spontaneous recovery within 3 months and a monophasic course
- •11. Pure motor CIDP: no sensory signs or symptoms and no abnormalities in sensory nerve conduction studies (SNAP, SNCV, SDLT)
- •12. Refusal to give informed consent or withdrawal of previously given permission
