Of these, 113 had definite large fiber PN; 14 were asymptomatic TTRv carriers, and one had small fiber neuropathy. Elevated sNfL levels were observed in 31 patients (24%). The odds ratio of having elevated sNfL in treatable vs. non\u2010treatable PN was 28.33 (95% CI: 5.04\u2013159.18). Among CIDP and ATTRv\u2010PN patients, sNfL was most often elevated in treatment\u2010na\u00efve or refractory cases and decreased with treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Routine sNfL testing is warranted in selected patients with PN, such as treatment\u2010na\u00efve or refractory CIDP, active vasculitic PN, and ATTRv\u2010PN.
