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

In polyglutamine diseases, an abnormally elongated polyglutamine results in protein misfolding and accumulation of intracellular aggregates. Autophagy is a major cellular degradative pathway responsible for eliminating unnecessary proteins, including polyglutamine aggregates. Basal autophagy constitutively occurs at low levels in cells for the performance of homeostatic function, but the regulatory mechanism for basal autophagy remains elusive. Here we show that the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) family of ion transporters affect autophagy in a neuron-like cell line (Neuro-2a cells). We showed that expression of NHE1 and NHE5 is correlated to polyglutamine accumulation levels in a cellular model of Huntington's disease, a fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterized by accumulation of polyglutamine-containing aggregate formation in the brain. Furthermore, we showed that loss of NHE5 results in increased polyglutamine accumulation in an animal model of Huntington's disease. Our data suggest that cellular pH regulation by NHE1 and NHE5 plays a role in regulating basal autophagy and thereby promotes autophagy-mediated degradation of proteins including polyglutamine aggregates.
