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

backgroundElexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a current standard therapy for pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple-breath washout PURPOSE: To compare MBW Xe-MRI and single-breath Xe-MRI in a small pediatric CF cohort at 1, 6, 12, and 24 months post-ETI initiation. STUDY TYPE: Prospective longitudinal cohort study. SUBJECTS: 14 participants (7 female, median age 15.5 [14, 17] years) with CF undergoing ETI. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: Xe-MRI using a gradient echo sequence at 3T. ASSESSMENT: A total of 12 participants completed MBW Xe-MRI, single-breath Xe-MRI, and PFTs (spirometry, N STATISTICAL TESTS: Longitudinal changes were analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model (fixed effect: time, random intercept: participant). Significance via ANOVA F-test, p < 0.05. Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to quantify between- and within-subject variability.

resultsData completeness (total number of acquired data points divided by expected data points across 14 participants, 4 visits) was ≥ 75%. While PFTs/VDP remained stable over 24 months (ICC ≥ 0.93; linear mixed-effects model of time effect for ppFEV DATA
