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 Atg3 protein is highly homologous from yeast to human. Atg3 functions as an E2-like enzyme promoting conjugation of Atg8-family proteins to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), a lipid molecule embedded in the growing phagophore membrane during stress-induced autophagy. Over the last decade, Atg3 became one of the most explored autophagy proteins, resulting in observations that provided specific insights into the structural mechanisms of its function. In this article, we describe a recent study by Ye et al. that reveals, using the human ATG3, how the membrane binding capability of the enzyme is tightly linked to its conjugation activity. We summarize the current knowledge on important mechanisms that involve protein-protein or protein-membrane interactions of Atg3 and that ultimately lead to efficient Atg8-PE conjugation.
