Clinical outcomes of adults and children with cystic fibrosis during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Article in Journal of cystic fibrosis : official journal of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe onset of the COVID-19 pandemic was associated with restricted community movement and limited access to healthcare facilities, resulting in changed clinical service delivery to people with cystic fibrosis (CF). This study aimed to determine clinical outcomes of Australian adults and children with CF in the 12-months following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
methodsThis longitudinal cohort study used national registry data. Primary outcomes were 12-month change in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1 %pred), body mass index (BMI) in adults and BMI z-scores in children. A piecewise linear mixed-effects model was used to determine trends in outcomes before and after pandemic onset.
resultsData were available for 3662 individuals (median age 19.6 years, range 0-82). When trends in outcomes before and after pandemic onset were compared; FEV1 %pred went from a mean annual decline of -0.13% (95%CI -0.36 to 0.11) to a mean improvement of 1.76% (95%CI 1.46-2.05). Annual trend in BMI improved from 0.03 kg/m
conclusionIn the 12-months following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an improvement in the clinical outcomes of people with CF when compared to the pre-pandemic period.
