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

objectivesAs cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease progresses, the airways become infected with opportunistic pathogens, such as

methodsA retrospective analysis of inhaled tobramycin (iTOB) prescriptions between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2021, was performed. This captured data before and after ETI approval at Children's Mercy Kansas City (CMKC). The number of individuals with new PA acquisition and individuals considered -chronically infected was analyzed.

resultsThe number of eradication prescriptions declined in 2020 and 2021, with 15 (7%) and 12 (5%) -individuals prescribed therapy for those years, respectively. A similar pattern was observed for -prescriptions for chronic infection. A reduction was seen in 2020 and 2021, with 28 (13%) and 20 (9%) individuals -prescribed therapy for the respective years.

conclusionsThe CMKC experienced a decrease in the number of courses of iTOB prescribed during the last 6 years. The reasons for this are likely multifactorial and may include the implementation of standardized PA surveillance and eradication protocols, the effect of HEMT on mucociliary clearance and airway microbiology, and the poorly understood effects of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the epidemiology of respiratory infections.
