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 programmed release of apoptogenic proteins from mitochondria is a core event of apoptosis, although ancestral roles of this phenomenon are not known. In mammals, one such apoptogenic protein is Endonuclease G (EndoG), a conserved mitochondrial nuclease that fragments the DNA of dying cells. In this work, we show that budding yeast executes meiotically programmed mitochondrial release of an EndoG homolog, Nuc1, during sporulation. In contrast to EndoG's ostensible pro-death function during apoptosis, Nuc1 mitochondrial release is pro-survival, attenuating the cytosolic L-A and Killer double-stranded RNA mycoviruses and protecting meiotic progeny from the catastrophic consequences of their derepression. The protective viral attenuation role of this pathway illuminates a primordial role for mitochondrial release of EndoG, and perhaps of apoptosis itself.
