Evolution of Lung Disease Studied by Computed Tomography in Adults with Cystic Fibrosis Treated with Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor.

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
Elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI) has shown clinical and spirometric benefits in cystic fibrosis (CF). CT remains a vital tool for diagnosing and monitoring structural lung disease. This study aimed to assess the evolution of lung disease, as evaluated through CT, in adults with CF after at least one year of ETI treatment. This ambispective observational analysis assessed lung CT scans performed before initiating ETI and after at least one year of treatment, using the modified Bhalla scoring system. For those patients with an earlier CT scan, a pre-treatment phase analysis was performed. Epidemiological, clinical, and functional parameters were evaluated. Results: Sixty-two patients were included (35 males, median age 30.4 ± 7.87 years). After at least one year of ETI, significant improvements were observed in the global CT Bhalla score (12.2 ± 2.8 vs. 14.0 ± 2.8), peribronchial thickening (1.4 ± 0.6 vs. 1.0 ± 0.4), and mucus plugging (1.6 ± 0.7 vs. 0.8 ± 0.6) (
