Functional Role of Hepatitis C Virus NS5A in the Regulation of Autophagy.
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Many types of RNA viruses, including the hepatitis C virus (HCV), activate autophagy in infected cells to promote viral growth and counteract the host defense response. Autophagy acts as a catabolic pathway in which unnecessary materials are removed via the lysosome, thus maintaining cellular homeostasis. The HCV non-structural 5A (NS5A) protein is a phosphoprotein required for viral RNA replication, virion assembly, and the determination of interferon (IFN) sensitivity. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that HCV NS5A can induce autophagy to promote mitochondrial turnover and the degradation of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF-1α) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1). In this review, we summarize recent progress in understanding the detailed mechanism by which HCV NS5A triggers autophagy, and outline the physiological significance of the balance between host-virus interactions.
