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

The functional and spatiotemporal organization of mitochondrial redox signaling networks can be studied in detail in cardiac myocytes and neurons by assessing the time-resolved signaling traits of their individual mitochondrial components. Perturbations of the mitochondrial network through oxidative stress can lead to coordinated, cluster-bound behavior in the form of synchronized limit-cycle oscillations of mitochondrial inner membrane potentials. These oscillations are facilitated by both structural coupling through changes in the local redox balance and signaling microdomains and functional coupling that is yet poorly understood. Thus, quantifiable measures of both coupling mechanisms, local dynamic mitochondrial coupling constants and functional clustering coefficients, are likely to offer valuable information on mitochondrial network organization. We provide step-by-step methodologies on how to acquire and assess these measures for inner membrane potential fluorescence fluctuations in laser-scanning two-photon microscope recordings of cardiac myocytes and neurons, that can be applied to other tissues as well.
