Non-pulmonary CFTR-related symptom improvement with ivacaftor in p.Phe508del/p.Arg117His (7T) cystic fibrosis.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Diagnosis and management of CRMS/CFSPID and cystic fibrosis (CF) with mild phenotypes remains challenging, and this extends to expanding practice with the use of CFTR modulators. We describe a case of an 18-year-old man with p.F508del/p.Arg117His(7T) initially presenting with CRMS/CFSPID. He went on to be diagnosed with pancreatic sufficient CF with minimal lung disease. However, he has had significant CFTR-related symptoms with recurrent pancreatitis and chronic sinusitis. These non-pulmonary symptoms resolved following introduction of the CFTR modulator ivacaftor. Care for those with mild CF phenotypes, CRMS/CFSPID and those with CFTR-RD must be individualized, and open dialogue, education and patient centred care is necessary to ascertaining which patients might benefit from management in a multidisciplinary CF clinic and treatment. There may be a role for expanding the use of CFTR modulators to include non-pulmonary manifestations of CFTR dysfunction in some cases.
