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 cellular recycling process of autophagy is essential for survival, development, and homeostasis. Autophagy also plays an important role in aging and has been linked to longevity in many species, including the nematode C. elegans. Study of the physiological roles of autophagy during C. elegans aging requires methods for the spatiotemporal analysis of autophagy. Here we describe a method for assessing autophagic flux in multiple tissues of C. elegans by quantifying the pool of autophagic vesicles using fluorescently labelled Atg8/LGG-1 reporters upon autophagy inhibition using bafilomycin A
