Review in Burns & trauma, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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, an adaptive catabolic process, plays a cytoprotective role in enabling cellular homeostasis in the innate and adaptive immune systems. Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in circulation, are professional killers that orchestrate a series of events during acute inflammation. The recent literature indicates that autophagy has important roles in regulating neutrophil functions, including differentiation, degranulation, metabolism and neutrophil extracellular trap formation, that dictate neutrophil fate. It is also becoming increasingly clear that autophagy regulation is critical for neutrophils to exert their immunological activity. However, evidence regarding the systematic communication between neutrophils and autophagy is insufficient. Here, we provide an updated overview of the function of autophagy as a regulator of neutrophils and discuss its clinical relevance to provide novel insight into potentially relevant treatment strategies.
