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

Mitochondria play a critical role in regulating cellular processes including ATP production, intracellular calcium signaling and generation of reactive oxidative species (ROS). Neurons rely on mitochondrial function to perform a range of complex processes, and mitochondrial dysfunctions have been shown to have an impact in pathologies of the nervous system. Yet, neurons contain a finite number of mitochondria, and their location is known to change in response to a number of factors including age and cellular activity, thereby impacting neuronal response. In this paper, we introduce a novel computational model of mitochondria motility that focuses on their movements along the axon. We describe the biological processes involved and the main parameters of the model. We use the model to investigate how some of these parameters affect the ability of mitochondria to position themselves in regions of high energy demand. Finally, we discuss the significance of our work and its downstream applications in further understanding pathologies of the nervous system such as Alzheimer's disease, and help identify potential novel therapeutic targets.
