The Knowns and Unknowns of Membrane Features and Changes During Autophagosome-Lysosome/Vacuole Fusion.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Autophagosome (AP)-lysosome/vacuole fusion is one of the hallmarks of macroautophagy. Membrane features and changes during the fusion process have mostly been described using two-dimensional (2D) models with one AP and one lysosome/vacuole. The outer membrane (OM) of a closed mature AP has been suggested to fuse with the lysosomal/vacuolar membrane. However, the descriptions in some studies for fusion-related issues are questionable or incomplete. The correct membrane features of APs and lysosomes/vacuoles are the prerequisite for describing the fusion process. We searched the literature for representative membrane features of AP-related structures based on electron microscopy (EM) graphs of both animal and yeast cells and re-evaluated the findings. We also summarized the main 2D models describing the membrane changes during AP-lysosome/vacuole fusion in the literature. We used three-dimensional (3D) models to characterize the known and unknown membrane changes during and after fusion of the most plausible 2D models. The actual situation is more complex, since multiple lysosomes may fuse with the same AP in mammalian cells, multiple APs may fuse with the same vacuole in yeast cells, and in some mutant cells, phagophores (unclosed APs) fuse with lysosomes/vacuoles. This review discusses the membrane features and highly dynamic changes during AP (phagophore)-lysosome/vacuole fusion. The resulting information will improve the understanding of AP-lysosome/vacuole fusion and direct the future research on AP-lysosome/vacuole fusion and regeneration.
