Qualitative and Quantitative Assessment of the Role of Endocytic Regulatory and/or Rab Proteins on Mitochondrial Fusion and Fission.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 are the major energy generating organelle in the cell; accordingly mitochondrial homeostasis is key to mitochondrial function. In recent years, new paradigms have uncovered roles for endocytic regulatory proteins in the control of mitochondrial fusion and fission, thus highlighting the utility of techniques for the study of mitochondrial morphology. Herein we detail methods to qualitatively and quantitatively measure the impact of select proteins on mitochondrial fusion and fission in human retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE1) cells. We demonstrate how commercially available small interfering RNA (siRNA) can be used to target various endocytic regulatory proteins, and freely available software can be used to evaluate the impact of these proteins on mitochondria by quantifying their effect on mitochondrial morphology. It is our goal to provide simple protocols that may prove useful for researchers new to the realm of endocytic regulatory proteins and mitochondrial homeostasis.
