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

Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor-associated protein (GABARAP) is a multifunctional member of the autophagy-related (ATG8) protein family, playing key roles in two distinct cellular pathways: macroautophagy and plasma membrane protein trafficking. In the context of autophagy, GABARAP modulates cargo recognition and supports the maturation and fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, a critical step in intracellular clearance and proteostasis. Separately, GABARAP also regulates vesicular receptor protein transport from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane, contributing to proper surface localization and receptor recycling. Both tasks are especially vital for neurons, where protein turnover and receptor localization are tightly linked to synaptic plasticity and neuroprotection. We recently identified a direct interaction between GABARAP and the sigma-1 receptor (σ
