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

We explored the potential for autophagy to regulate budding yeast meiosis. Following pre-meiotic DNA replication, we blocked autophagy by chemical inhibition of Atg1 kinase or engineered degradation of Atg14 and observed homologous chromosome segregation followed by sister chromatid separation; cells then underwent additional rounds of spindle formation and disassembly without DNA re-replication, leading to aberrant chromosome segregation. Analysis of cell-cycle regulators revealed that autophagy inhibition prevents meiosis II-specific expression of Clb3 and leads to the aberrant persistence of Clb1 and Cdc5, two substrates of a meiotic ubiquitin ligase activated by Ama1. Lastly, we found that during meiosis II, autophagy degrades Rim4, an amyloid-like translational repressor whose timed clearance regulates protein production from its mRNA targets, which include CLB3 and AMA1. Strikingly, engineered Clb3 or Ama1 production restored meiotic termination in the absence of autophagy. Thus, autophagy destroys a master regulator of meiotic gene expression to enable irreversible meiotic exit.
