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

Cystic fibrosis is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in CFTR, the gene encoding cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The discovery of CFTR in 1989 has enabled the unravelling of disease mechanisms and, more recently, the development of CFTR-directed therapeutics that target the underlying molecular defect. The CFTR protein functions as an ion channel that is crucial for correct ion and fluid transport across epithelial cells lining the airways and other organs. Consequently, CFTR dysfunction causes a complex multi-organ disease but, to date, most of the morbidity and mortality in people with cystic fibrosis is due to muco-obstructive lung disease. Cystic fibrosis care has long been limited to treating symptoms using nutritional support, airway clearance techniques and antibiotics to suppress airway infection. The widespread implementation of newborn screening for cystic fibrosis and the introduction of a highly effective triple combination CFTR modulator therapy that has unprecedented clinical benefits in up to 90% of genetically eligible people with cystic fibrosis has fundamentally changed the therapeutic landscape and improved prognosis. However, people with cystic fibrosis who are not eligible based on their CFTR genotype or who live in countries where they do not have access to this breakthrough therapy remain with a high unmet medical need.
