Review in American journal of cancer research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Autophagy is a mechanism by which cellular substances are transported to lysosomes for degradation, allowing the basic transformation of cellular components, and providing energy and macromolecular precursors. In cancer, the contradictory role of autophagy in tumor suppression and promotion has been widely acknowledged. Activation and suppression of autophagy have been proposed as cancer therapies, resulting in targeted treatment of cancer by autophagy being considered ambiguous. The dynamic effect of autophagy can also be applied to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a malignant tumor with high incidence and a low survival rate. In this review, we introduce characteristics of different types of autophagy and summarize which genes, non-coding RNAs, and related signaling pathways are involved in autophagy and the regulation of the formation and progress of HCC. More importantly, we discuss the role of autophagy in the treatment of HCC, such as in traditional chemotherapy, molecular targeted drugs, and natural products.
