Article in Journal of cystic fibrosis : official journal of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06837181 (Studying the Presence of CFRD Complications With Thoughtful Recruitment), which is not on this map. Cited by 32 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

Strong emphasis has been placed historically on increasing weight and improving nutritional status in cystic fibrosis patients. Due to correlation between nutritional indices (e.g. BMI) and lung function, CF Nutrition Guidelines have recommended BMI percentile goals at the 50th percentile or higher. Trends in increasing BMI across CF programs suggest significantly increasing proportions of overweight and obese status in recent years. We identify that between 2000 and 2019 there has been a relative decrease in underweight status by ∼40%, simultaneously with a > 300% increase in overweight status, and >400% increase in obesity. Patient specific factors associated with higher prevalence of obesity included age ≥46, living in a zip code where the median income was < $20,000, having at least one allele with a class IV or V mutation, a ppFEV
