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
Background & aims: The CFTR-modulating therapy Elexaftor - Tezacaftor - Ivacaftor (ETI) has been widely prescribed since its approval in 2020 in the European Union. The aim of this study was to methodically evaluate the effects of an ETI treatment on clinical, biochemical data and Pseudomonas colonization in order to demonstrate its efficacy. Methods: This prospective monocentric study comprised 69 patients diagnosed with cystic fibrosis aged at least 12 years and treated with ETI between September 2020 and November 2021. Clinical and laboratory data of each patient and study visit were collected before and after 24 weeks of ETI treatment. Follow-up status of Results: Marked improvements biochemical markers of systemic inflammation as white blood cell count, levels of immunoglobulins A, G and M and albumin within 24 weeks of therapy were observed. ETI treatment proved to be effective as seen by amelioration of lung function and sweat chloride concentration. Assessment of PsA colonization status revealed a conversion from a positive to negative detection in 36% of the cases after one year of therapy. Conclusions: ETI treatment effectively improves systemic inflammation parameters and shows promising results in PsA status conversion.
