Review in Current opinion in pediatrics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06322446 (Effects of a Strength Exercise Program on Muscular Health in People With CF Treated With Modulators of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Receptor), which is not on this map. Cited by 32 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewThe aim of this study was to describe the newest development in cystic fibrosis (CF) care, CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapies. RECENT

findingsPhase II results showing CFTR modulator triple therapies are more effective than current CFTR modulators. SUMMARY: CFTR modulator therapy targets the protein defective in CF and boosts its function, but the drug must match mutation pathobiology. Ivacaftor, a CFTR potentiator, was the first modulator approved in 2012, with impressive improvement in lung function and other measures of disease in patients with gating and other residual function mutations (∼10% of CF patients). In 2015, the combination of lumacaftor, a CFTR corrector, and ivacaftor was approved for patients homozygous for the F508del mutation (∼40-50% of the CF population) with positive but less impressive clinical response and 10-20% incidence of intolerance. A next-generation CFTR corrector, tezacaftor, with ivacaftor equally effective and better tolerated than lumacaftor, has also received US Food and Drug Administration approval. Novel CFTR correctors, entering Phase 3 trials in triple modulator combination with tezacaftor-ivacaftor, appear substantially more effective for patients who are homozygous for the F508del mutation and can provide benefit for patients with a single F508del mutation. This offers promise of effective CFTR modulator therapy for nearly 90% of CF patients.
