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

Autophagy is a dynamic process critical in maintaining cellular homoeostasis. Dysregulation of autophagy is linked to many diseases and is emerging as a promising therapeutic target. High-throughput methods to characterise autophagy are essential for accelerating drug discovery and characterising mechanisms of action. In this study, we developed a scalable image-based temporal profiling approach to characterise ~900 morphological features at a single cell level with high temporal resolution. We differentiated drug treatments based on morphological profiles using a random forest classifier with ~90% accuracy and identified the key features that govern classification. Additionally, temporal morphological profiles accurately predicted biologically relevant changes in autophagy after perturbation, such as total cargo degraded. Therefore, this study acts as proof-of-principle for using image-based temporal profiling to differentiate autophagy perturbations in a high-throughput manner and has the potential identify biologically relevant autophagy phenotypes. Ultimately, approaches like image-based temporal profiling can accelerate drug discovery.
