Monitoring Autophagic Flux in the Model Single-Celled Microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Autophagy is a catabolic process by which eukaryotic cells degrade and recycle unnecessary or damaged intracellular components to maintain cellular homeostasis and to cope with stress. The development of specific tools to monitor autophagy in microalgae and plants has been fundamental to investigate this catabolic pathway in photosynthetic organisms. The protein ATG8 is a widely used molecular marker of autophagy in all eukaryotes, including the model microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The drug concanamycin A, a specific inhibitor of vacuolar ATPase, has also been extensively used to block autophagic flux in the green lineage. In Chlamydomonas, inhibition of autophagic flux by concanamycin A has been shown to prevent the degradation of ribosomal proteins and the formation of lipid bodies under nitrogen or phosphorous starvation. Here, we detail how the abundance and lipidation state of ATG8 can be used to monitor autophagic flux in Chlamydomonas by western blot analysis.
