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

Transitions from the early to late phagophore, which occur to engulf cytoplasmic material within an autophagosome for macroautophagic/autophagic degradation, involve dynamic ultrastructural changes that are not fully understood. A recent study combined cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) with extensive computational analysis to get a better insight into autophagosome biogenesis in situ within yeast cells. This approach disclosed new information on the shape of autophagic structures, their contacts with surrounding organelles, membrane sources, and mechanisms of transition. Together, these results provide new directions for autophagy research, and show the potential of cryo-ET in cell biology.
