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

background and purposeCystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) potentiators are small molecules developed to treat the genetic disease cystic fibrosis (CF). They interact directly with CFTR Cl EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Using electrophysiological assays with CFTR-expressing heterologous cells and CF patient-derived human bronchial epithelial (hBE) cells, we compared the effects of CP-628006 with the marketed CFTR potentiator ivacaftor. KEY

resultsCP-628006 efficaciously potentiated CFTR function in epithelia from cultured hBE cells. Its effects on the predominant CFTR variant F508del-CFTR were larger than those with the gating variant G551D-CFTR. In excised inside-out membrane patches, CP-628006 potentiated wild-type, F508del-CFTR, and G551D-CFTR by increasing the frequency and duration of channel openings. CP-628006 increased the affinity and efficacy of F508del-CFTR gating by ATP. In these respects, CP-628006 behaved like ivacaftor. CP-628006 also demonstrated notable differences with ivacaftor. Its potency and efficacy were lower than those of ivacaftor. CP-628006 conferred ATP-dependent gating on G551D-CFTR, whereas the action of ivacaftor was ATP-independent. For G551D-CFTR, but not F508del-CFTR, the action of CP-628006 plus ivacaftor was greater than ivacaftor alone. CP-628006 delayed, but did not prevent, the deactivation of F508del-CFTR at the plasma membrane, whereas ivacaftor accentuated F508del-CFTR deactivation. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: CP-628006 has distinct effects compared to ivacaftor, suggesting a different mechanism of CFTR potentiation. The emergence of CFTR potentiators with diverse modes of action makes therapy with combinations of potentiators a possibility.
