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

Macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy) is a cellular "self-eating" process that is implicated in many human cancers, where it can act to either promote or suppress tumorigenesis. However, the role of autophagy in regulation of inflammation during tumorigenesis remains unclear. Here we show that autophagy is induced in the epidermis by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and autophagy gene Atg7 promoted UV-induced inflammation and skin tumorigenesis. Atg7 regulated UV-induced cytokine expression and secretion, and promoted Ptgs2/Cox-2 expression through both a CREB1/CREB-dependent cell autonomous mechanism and an IL1B/IL1β-dependent non-cell autonomous mechanism.
