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

In addition to its central role in energy metabolism, the mitochondrion has many other functions essential for cell survival. When stressed, the multifunctional mitochondria are expected to engender multifaceted cell stress with complex physiological consequences. Potential extra-mitochondrial proteostatic burdens imposed by inefficient protein import have been largely overlooked. Accumulating evidence suggests that a diverse range of pathogenic mitochondrial stressors, which do not directly target the core protein import machinery, can reduce cell fitness by disrupting the proteostatic network in the cytosol. The resulting stress, named mitochondrial precursor overaccumulation stress (mPOS), is characterized by the toxic accumulation of unimported mitochondrial proteins in the cytosol. Here, we review our current understanding of how mitochondrial dysfunction can impact the cytosolic proteome and proteostatic signaling. We also discuss the intriguing possibility that the mPOS model may help untangle the cause-effect relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and cytosolic protein aggregation, which are probably the two most prominent molecular hallmarks of neurodegenerative disease.
