Targeting ULK1 in cancer stem cells: insight from chronic myeloid leukemia.
Article in Autophagy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Minimal residual disease (MRD) refers to a low number of cells that persist anti-cancer treatment and is the major cause of relapse in solid cancers and leukemias. In chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a paradigm for stem cell-driven cancer, MRD is maintained by tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-insensitive leukemic stem cells (LSCs), which may rely on fundamental metabolic processes to resist drug treatment. Macroautophagy/autophagy is a cytoprotective process that has been highlighted as critical for sustaining LSC survival during TKI treatment in robust experimental models of CML. Our recent study shows that the autophagy-initiating kinase ULK1 is required for maintaining energy and redox balance in CML LSCs. Pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 results in stress-induced differentiation of LSCs, rendering them sensitive to TKI treatment, uncovering a promising strategy for selective eradication of LSCs in CML patients.
