Viral Infection Correlates with a Better Clinical Outcome than Pulmonary Exacerbation of Bacterial Origin in Paediatric Patients with Cystic Fibrosis.
Article in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cystic fibrosis is a progressive disease affecting various organs of the human body, including the respiratory system. While the effect of bacterial infection on cystic fibrosis outcome has been comprehensively described, little is known about the impact of viruses. We collected 49 nasopharyngeal swabs derived from cystic fibrosis paediatric patients during pulmonary exacerbation and tested them for the presence of respiratory viruses to elucidate the influence of the viral infection on their clinical outcome. We found that patients infected with a virus, compared to those in whom molecular testing for viruses was negative, are characterised by a better clinical outcome, as measured by the Shwachman-Kulczycki score (
