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

The innate immune system has evolved to recognize diverse microbes and destroy them. At the same time, microbial pathogens undermine immunity to cause disease. Here, we highlight recent advances in understanding an antimicrobial pathway called LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP), which combines features of autophagy with phagocytosis. Upon phagocytosis, many microbes, including bacteria, fungi, and parasites, are sequestered in an LC3-positive, single-membrane bound compartment, a hallmark of LAP. LAP depends upon NADPH oxidase activity at the incipient phagosome and culminates in lysosomal trafficking and microbial degradation. Most often LAP is an effective host defense, but some pathogens evade LAP or replicate successfully in this microenvironment. Here, we review how LAP targets microbial pathogens and strategies pathogens employ to circumvent LAP.
