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-related diabetes (CFRD) is the most prevalent extrapulmonary comorbidity in CF. While insulin remains the standard treatment, increasing rates of overweight and obesity due to CFTR modulators highlight the need for new therapies. SGLT2 inhibitors, effective in type 2 diabetes, have not been studied in CFRD. This case series presents eight CFRD patients treated with SGLT2 inhibitors alongside insulin for one year. Half had BMI reductions (1.33-2.89 kg/m2); others had increases. Glycemic control improved in six, worsened in two due to insulin nonadherence. Insulin adjustments showed no pattern. One patient discontinued due to genital infections; overall tolerance was high.
