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

Mitophagy is a major pathway for clearance of injured mitochondria. However, whether mitophagy is involved in the cholestasis-induced damages of hepatic mitochondria remains unknown. We here aimed to investigate the molecular links between cholestasis and hepatic mitophagy. We show that mitophagy is increased significantly in livers of biliary atresia (BA) that is cholestatic disease in infants. The mitochondrial-toxicity bile acids treatment increases the activities of mitophagy in hepatocytes. Mechanistically, we find that the prohibitin 2 (PHB2) is crucial for cholestasis-mediated mitophagy in vitro. On the one hand, PHB2 binds the autophagosomal membrane-associated protein LC3 upon injured mitochondria via an LC3-interaction region domain. On the other hand, PHB2 forms a ternary protein complex with sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) and LC3, leading to loading of LC3 onto the damaged mitochondria. Altogether, our study suggests that PHB2 is required for cholestasis-induced mitophagy via LC3 onto the injured mitochondria.
