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

backgroundSafe and rational development of nanomaterials for clinical translation requires the assessment of potential biocompatibility. Autophagy, a critical homeostatic pathway intrinsically linked to cellular health and inflammation, has been shown to be affected by nanomaterials. It is, therefore, important to be able to assess possible interactions of nanomaterials with autophagic processes.

resultsCEM (T cell), Raji (B lymphocyte), and THP-1 (human monocyte) cell lines were subject to treatment with rapamycin and chloroquine, known to affect the autophagic process, in order to evaluate cell line-specific responses. Flow cytometric quantification of a fluorescent autophagic vacuole stain showed that maximum observable effects (105%, 446%, and 149% of negative controls) were achieved at different exposure durations (8, 6, and 24 h for CEM, Raji, and THP-1, respectively). THP-1 was subsequently utilised as a model to assess the autophagic impact of a small library of nanomaterials. Association was observed between hydrodynamic size and autophagic impact (r

conclusionsThis data further supports the potential for a variety of nanomaterials to interfere with autophagic processes which, in turn, may result in altered cellular function and viability. The association of particle size with impact on autophagy now warrants further investigation.
