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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents the most aggressive and therapeutically recalcitrant breast cancer subtype, exhibiting dismal clinical outcomes due to its intrinsic heterogeneity and lack of molecularly targeted treatment options. Emerging evidence has established the autophagy-related proteins (ARPs) as key regulators of TNBC pathogenesis, functioning not only as metabolic gatekeepers but also as multifaceted modulators of malignant transformation, disease progression, and therapeutic responsiveness. These proteins exert diverse functions in TNBC through both canonical autophagy-dependent pathways and non-canonical mechanisms. In this review, we critically examine the pleiotropic functions and molecular mechanisms of ARPs in TNBC progression and therapeutic responsiveness, with special emphasis on their context-dependent roles in both fortifying therapeutic resistance and, paradoxically, creating vulnerabilities for therapeutic exploitation.
