Role of autophagy in cholangiocarcinoma: Pathophysiology and implications for therapy.
Review in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a malignant tumour of the biliary system that originates from the neoplastic transformation of cholangiocytes. CCA is characterized by late diagnosis and poor outcome, with surgery considered as the last option for management. Autophagy is a physiological lysosomal degradation process, essential for cellular homeostasis and ubiquitous in all eukaryotic cells. Several studies have reported a potential involvement of autophagy in cancer, but it remains unclear whether activation of this process represents a survival mechanism of cancer cells. In the present review, we examine the autophagic process and summarize the current knowledge about the involvement of autophagy in the progression of cancer. The link between autophagy and chemoresistance and the use of autophagic markers in diagnosis are also considered in detail. Preliminary evidence shows that the combination of autophagy modulators (activators or inhibitors) with conventional chemotherapeutic agents offers a possible treatment option against signalling pathways that are hyperactivated or altered in CCA.
