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

Redox control in the mitochondrion is essential for the proper functioning of this organelle. Disruption of mitochondrial redox processes contributes to a host of human disorders, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and aging. To better characterize redox control pathways in this organelle, we have targeted a green fluorescent protein-based redox sensor to the intermembrane space (IMS) and matrix of yeast mitochondria. This approach allows us to separately monitor the redox state of the matrix and the IMS, providing a more detailed picture of redox processes in these two compartments. To verify that the sensors respond to localized glutathione (GSH) redox changes, we have genetically manipulated the subcellular redox state using oxidized GSH (GSSG) reductase localization mutants. These studies indicate that redox control in the cytosol and matrix are maintained separately by cytosolic and mitochondrial isoforms of GSSG reductase. Our studies also demonstrate that the mitochondrial IMS is considerably more oxidizing than the cytosol and mitochondrial matrix and is not directly influenced by endogenous GSSG reductase activity. These redox measurements are used to predict the oxidation state of thiol-containing proteins that are imported into the IMS.
