A therapeutic revolution: CFTR modulators in cystic fibrosis and their impacts on pregnant women and the fetus.
Review in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2026. 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
Over the past 50 years, therapeutic advances have significantly improved the management of cystic fibrosis (CF). Recently, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators have been widely regarded as a therapeutic revolution, and their use is associated with a marked increase in pregnancies among affected women. However, pregnant women were excluded from clinical trials, limiting what is known about maternal and fetal safety. Maternal and fetal outcome tend to be poorer when the disease is severe, but there is limited data on such pregnancies exposed to CFTR modulators. While available data suggest a low risk of birth defects, information on neurological development is lacking and concerns remain regarding lung abnormalities in animal studies, as well as a few cases of congenital cataracts reported in humans. For fetuses affected by CF, the transplacental transfer of CFTR modulators could potentially prevent severe complications, such as meconium ileus, opening promising therapeutic avenues.
