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

purposeAutophagy has emerged in recent years as a critical cellular survival mechanism for cell homeostasis and may play a protective role in atherosclerosis. We aimed to review here the role autophagy plays in different cell types present in carotid atherosclerotic plaques and that may be associated with the development of unstable carotid atheroma plaque.

methodsWe performed a thorough literature exploration in this area of research covering the three main cell types present in carotid atheroma plaques.

findingsReviewed reports indicate that the role of autophagy in stable or unstable carotid atherosclerotic plaques depends on the different cell types and phenotypes, the stage and morphology of the plaque and the specific autophagy factor/s involved. DISCUSSION: Although defective autophagy could be one of the causes for carotid atheroma plaques to become unstable, it is important to take into account that autophagic players can act differentially in different cell types and different stages of the developed plaque.

conclusionThis review provides an overview of the role of autophagy in the main cell types in carotid atherosclerosis (i.e. macrophages, endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells).
