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

backgroundMitochondrial (MT) dysfunction is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid-β protein precursor and amyloid-β peptides localize to MT and lead to MT dysfunction in familial forms of AD. This dysfunction may trigger subsequent types of pathology.

objectiveTo identify the MT phenotypes that occur early in order to help understand the cascade of AD pathophysiology.

methodsThe 5xFAD mouse model was used to explore the time course of MT pathologies in both sexes. Protein biomarkers for MT dynamics were measured biochemically and MT function was measured using oxygen consumption and ATP assays.

resultsWe discovered progressive alterations in mitochondrial dynamics (biogenesis, fission, fusion, and mitophagy) and function (O2 consumption, ATP generation, and Ca2+ import) in the hippocampus of 5xFAD mice in both sexes as early as 2 months of age. Thus, mitochondrial dynamics and function become altered at young ages, consistent with an early role for mitochondria in the AD pathological cascade.

conclusionOur study offers the baseline information required to understand the hierarchical relationship between the multiple pathologies that develop in this mouse model and provides early biomarkers for MT dysfunction. This will aid in dissecting the temporal cascade of pathologies, understanding sex-specific differences, and in testing the efficacy of putative mitochondrial therapeutics.
