Reading the Signature of Autophagy in the Ischemic and Infarcted Heart: A Systematic Review of Circulating Biomarkers.
Synthesis in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Ischemic heart disease is the main cause of death worldwide. Classic cardiac biomarkers, such as troponin, which are released due to myocyte necrosis, are widely used for diagnosis, but they provide limited information about the initial underlying cellular processes involved in myocardial infarction. Autophagy is now considered fundamental in the pathophysiology of cardiac ischemia and related reperfusion injury. This systematic review aims to identify and highlight candidate autophagy-related biomarkers in cardiac ischemia and infarction with potential benefits for early diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. A comprehensive literature search was conducted up to 1 June 2025. We included studies that examined biomarkers involved in the autophagy process in cardiac ischemia/infarction, which involved humans and animal models. A total of 14 eligible articles were reviewed. Thirteen autophagy-related biomarkers were identified, including LC3-II/I, Beclin-1, ATG5, ATG7, p62, WIPI1, FGF21, CHRF, Rubicon, IL-1β, IL-18, and adiponectin. These biomarkers have a dynamic pattern, and they exhibited time-dependent changes during the different stages of myocardial infarction. Autophagy biomarkers present a promising understanding of the molecular mechanism of early myocardial ischemia and infarction. Integration of autophagy biomarkers with the classic markers should improve risk stratification, therapeutic decision-making, and prognosis in patients with ischemic heart disease.
