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

In preschool children with cystic fibrosis (CF), lung clearance index (LCI) is a sensitive test to detect early lung disease. Some children with CF screen positive, inconclusive diagnosis (CFSPID) may in time develop clinical features of CF. LCI has not been studied in CFSPID children. LCI and spirometry were performed in preschool age children with CF, CFSPID, and non-CF healthy controls (HCs) during two visits. Fifty-four preschool age children (HC n = 18, CFSPID n = 17, and CF n = 19) were tested. Mean LCI from the CFSPID group was not statistically different from HC (p = 0.49), but significantly different when compared to CF (p = 0.04). LCI was abnormal in 2 CFSPID children who carried potentially deleterious CFTR variants. Mean forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV
