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 WD40 domain (WDD) of ATG16L1 plays a pivotal role in non-canonical autophagy. This study examined the role of recently identified LAP-like non-canonical autophagy (LNCA) in acute pancreatitis. LNCA involves rapid single-membrane LC3 conjugation to endocytic vacuoles in pancreatic acinar cells. The rationale for this study was the previously observed presence of trypsin in the organelles undergoing LNCA; aberrant trypsin formation is an important factor in pancreatitis development. Here we report that the deletion of WDD (attained in ATG16L1[E230] mice) eliminated LNCA, aggravated caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis and suppressed the fast trypsin degradation observed in both a rapid caerulein-induced disease model and in caerulein-treated isolated pancreatic acinar cells. These experiments indicate that LNCA is a WDD-dependent mechanism and suggest that it plays not an activating but a protective role in acute pancreatitis. Furthermore, palmitoleic acid, another inducer of experimental acute pancreatitis, strongly inhibited LNCA, suggesting a novel mechanism of pancreatic lipotoxicity.
