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

Inflammation is critical for controlling infections but can cause disease when unchecked. During Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, neutrophil-dominated inflammation is associated with exacerbated disease. ATG5 expression by neutrophils mediates autophagy-independent control of infection but mechanistic understanding of how this regulates protective neutrophil function is lacking. Using genetic mouse models along with in vivo and in vitro infection systems, we report herein that ATG5 is required in neutrophils to suppress type I interferon-induced PAD4-mediated histone citrullination and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release. In addition, ATG5 suppresses type I interferon-induced CXCL2 secretion and neutrophil swarming during Mtb infection. Elevated type I IFN signalling and NET release contribute to the early susceptibility of Atg5
