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

The yeast protein Atg11, whose structure is not fully solved, is a central organizer of autophagosome formation that recruits Atg9 during selective autophagy. Although the residues in Atg9 responsible for this interaction are known, those in Atg11 are not. In an attempt to discover the binding site of Atg9 on Atg11, we screened a number of mutants within amino acid residues 455-627 of Atg11, guided in part by an AlphaFold2-generated model of the Atg11 dimer. However, we were not able to identify specific residues essential for the interaction with Atg9, suggesting that the binding region may lie elsewhere on Atg11.
