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

Intracellular pathogens establish persistent infections by generating reservoirs that protect them from the action of antibiotics and the host immune response. Novel therapeutics should then target the host pathways exploited by the pathogens to form these intracellular niches. An attractive strategy to achieve this is inducing xenophagy, the selective autophagy that recognizes and targets invading pathogens for degradation. However, some bacteria have evolved mechanisms to co-opt xenophagy for their own benefit. Therefore, in this study we determine the effect of inducing xenophagy by different pathways, namely the inhibition of MTOR or through TRPML1-TFEB activation, on the fate of pathogens that are either susceptible to, evade or require autophagy for intracellular survival. We identified a dose of rapamycin that exclusively induces autophagy through MTOR inhibition and used ML-SA1 to activate the TRPML1-TFEB pathway, which also increases lysosomal biogenesis. We found that ML-SA1 induced greater autophagy flux than rapamycin. By performing in vitro infections with
