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.

2 · The registry

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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that affects approximately 75,000 individuals around the world. Long regarded as a lethal and life-limiting disease, with the most severe manifestations expressed in the progressive decline of lung function, treatment advances focusing on airway clearance and management of chronic lung infection have resulted in improved outcomes for individuals with cystic fibrosis. These advances have been realized in conjunction with an improved understanding of the genetic basis of this disease, dating back to the discovery of the cystic fibrosis gene in 1989. The identification of the cystic fibrosis gene and the advancement of our understanding of the resultant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein have led to the development of a new class of cystic fibrosis therapies designed to directly impact the function of this protein. These therapeutic developments have progressed, targeting the various mutations that can cause cystic fibrosis. These new medications, known as cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulators, have changed the landscape of cystic fibrosis care and cystic fibrosis research. Their demonstrated effect in patients with specific cystic fibrosis mutations has ignited the hope that such therapies will soon be available to more individuals with this disease, moving the cystic fibrosis community significantly closer to the ultimate goal of curing this disease.
