Glycogen: the missing link in neuronal autophagy?
Review in Autophagy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an intracellular degradative pathway that is often induced as a pro-survival process for cells under stress. A few recent reports establish the role of the glycogen metabolic pathway in neuronal cell survival in conditions such as oxidative stress and hypoxia, and the possible link between glycogen synthesis and autophagy induction. This commentary highlights the emerging role of GYS (glycogen synthase) in neuronal autophagy and stress response.
