Effect of Alisporivir on Calcium Ion Transport and Mitophagy in Skeletal Muscle and Heart Mitochondria in Dystrophin-Deficient Mice.
Article in Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We studied the effect of the mitochondrial calcium-dependent pore (MPT pore) inhibitor alisporivir (5 mg/kg per day for 4 weeks) on the parameters of calcium ion transport and the intensity of mitophagy in mitochondria of the heart and skeletal muscles of dystrophin-deficient C57BL/10ScSn-mdx mice. Alisporivir increased the rate of calcium uptake by skeletal muscle mitochondria of mdx mice, which was accompanied by changes in the level of the MCU and MCUb subunits of the calcium uniporter. At the same time, the intensity of calcium uniport in the heart mitochondria did not change. Alisporivir was found to reduce the expression of Pink1 and Parkin genes regulating the intensity of mitophagy in skeletal muscles of mdx mice, but did not affect the expression of these genes in the heart. This effect of alisporivir was accompanied by fragmentation and a decrease in the mean size of organelles. Possible mitochondrion-related mechanisms of the protective effect of alisporivir on the skeletal muscle and heart cells are discussed.
