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

Previous studies have established the pathogenic role of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulation in intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Emerging evidence indicates that ER-phagy serves as a crucial cellular adaptive mechanism during stress conditions. This study is aimed at investigating the role of FAM134B-mediated ER-phagy in human nucleus pulposus (NP) cells upon AGEs treatment and exploring its regulatory mechanisms. We observed that AGEs treatment resulted in significantly increased apoptosis, senescence, and ROS accumulation in human NP cells; meanwhile, the enhanced apoptosis and senescence by AGEs treatment could be partially alleviated with the classic ROS scavenger NAC administration. Furthermore, we confirmed that FAM134B-mediated ER-phagy was activated under AGEs stimulation via ROS pathway. Importantly, it was also found that FAM134B overexpression could efficiently relieve intracellular ROS accumulation, apoptosis, and senescence upon AGEs treatment; conversely, FAM134B knockdown markedly resulted in opposite effects. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that FAM134B-mediated ER-phagy plays a vital role in AGEs-induced apoptosis and senescence through modulating cellular ROS accumulation, and targeting FAM134B-mediated ER-phagy could be a promising therapeutic strategy for IDD treatment.
