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

DNA repair and autophagy are distinct biological processes vital for cell survival. Although autophagy helps maintain genome stability, there is no evidence of its direct role in the repair of DNA lesions. We discovered that lysosomes process topoisomerase 1 cleavage complexes (TOP1cc) DNA lesions in vertebrates. Selective degradation of TOP1cc by autophagy directs DNA damage repair and cell survival at clinically relevant doses of topoisomerase 1 inhibitors. TOP1cc are exported from the nucleus to lysosomes through a transient alteration of the nuclear envelope and independent of the proteasome. Mechanistically, the autophagy receptor TEX264 acts as a TOP1cc sensor at DNA replication forks, triggering TOP1cc processing by the p97 ATPase and mediating the delivery of TOP1cc to lysosomes in an MRE11-nuclease- and ATR-kinase-dependent manner. We found an evolutionarily conserved role for selective autophagy in DNA repair that enables cell survival, protects genome stability, and is clinically relevant for colorectal cancer patients.
