Emerging pharmacological options in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Review in Expert review of clinical pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
introductionIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive-fibrosing lung disease with a median survival of less than 5 years. Currently, two agents, pirfenidone and nintedanib are approved for this disease, and both have been shown to reduce the rate of decline in lung function in patients with IPF. However, both have significant adverse effects and neither completely arrest the decline in lung function. AREAS COVERED: Thirty experimental agents with unique mechanisms of action that are being evaluated for the treatment of IPF are discussed. These agents work through various mechanisms of action, these include inhibition of transcription nuclear factor k-B on fibroblasts, reduced expression of metalloproteinase 7, the generation of more lysophosphatidic acids, blocking the effects of transforming growth factor ß, and reducing reactive oxygen species as examples of some unique mechanisms of action of these agents. EXPERT OPINION: New drug development has the potential to expand the treatment options available in the treatment of IPF patients. It is expected that the adverse drug effect profiles will be more favorable than current agents. It is further anticipated that these new agents or combinations of agents will arrest the fibrosis, not just slow the fibrotic process.
