An exploratory text analysis of the autophagy research field.
Article in Autophagy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
After its discovery in the 1950 s, the autophagy research field has seen its annual number of publications climb from tens to thousands. The ever-growing number of autophagy publications is a wealth of information but presents a challenge to researchers, especially those new to the field, who are looking for a general overview of the field to, for example, determine current topics of the field or formulate new hypotheses. Here, we employed text mining tools to extract research trends in the autophagy field, including those of genes, terms, and topics. The publication trend of the field can be separated into three phases. The exponential rise in publication number began in the last phase and is most likely spurred by a series of highly cited research papers published in previous phases. The exponential increase in papers has resulted in a larger variety of research topics, with the majority involving those that are directly physiologically relevant, such as disease and modulating autophagy. Our findings provide researchers a summary of the history of the autophagy research field and perhaps hints of what is to come.
