Article in Journal of cystic fibrosis : official journal of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05752019 (TAAI Erasmus Research Initiative to Fight CF), which is not on this map. Cited by 15 papers.

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.

Abstract

introductionBiomarkers of inflammation in blood and sputum can play a critical role in anti-inflammatory drug development in cystic fibrosis (CF). The objectives of this analysis were to examine relationships between airway and systemic measurements of inflammation, associations between inflammatory biomarkers and FEV

methodsWe analyzed baseline and serial concentrations of inflammatory markers in blood and induced sputum collected from individuals with CF ages 10 years and older who participated in a multicenter clinical trial.

resultsAmong circulating biomarkers, serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA) correlated most strongly with each other (r

conclusionsAmong the biomarkers analyzed, serum hsCRP and sputum neutrophil elastase are promising candidates to include in CF anti-inflammatory clinical trials to avoid redundancy, minimize variation, and serve as correlates of lung disease severity and change.
