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

Consumption of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by the heart can change dramatically as the energetic demands increase from a period of rest to strenuous activity. Mitochondrial ATP production is central to this metabolic response since the heart relies largely on oxidative phosphorylation as its source of intracellular ATP. Significant evidence has been acquired indicating that Ca(2+) plays a critical role in regulating ATP production by the mitochondria. Here the evidence that the Ca(2+) concentration in the mitochondrial matrix ([Ca(2+)]m) plays a pivotal role in regulating ATP production by the mitochondria is critically reviewed and aspects of this process that are under current active investigation are highlighted. Importantly, current quantitative information on the bidirectional Ca(2+) movement across the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) is examined in two parts. First, we review how Ca(2+) influx into the mitochondrial matrix depends on the mitochondrial Ca(2+) channel (i.e., the mitochondrial calcium uniporter or MCU). This discussion includes how the MCU open probability (PO) depends on the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) and on the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). Second, we discuss how steady-state [Ca(2+)]m is determined by the dynamic balance between this MCU-based Ca(2+) influx and mitochondrial Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCLX) based Ca(2+) efflux. These steady-state [Ca(2+)]m levels are suggested to regulate the metabolic energy supply due to Ca(2+)-dependent regulation of mitochondrial enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), the proteins of the electron transport chain (ETC), and the F1F0 ATP synthase itself. We conclude by discussing the roles played by [Ca(2+)]m in influencing mitochondrial responses under pathological conditions. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Mitochondria: From BasicMitochondrial Biology to Cardiovascular Disease."
