Mitochondrially-associated actin waves maintain organelle homeostasis and equitable inheritance.
Review in Current opinion in cell biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
First identified in dividing cells as revolving clusters of actin filaments, these are now understood as mitochondrially-associated actin waves that are active throughout the cell cycle. These waves are formed from the polymerization of actin onto a subset of mitochondria. Within minutes, this F-actin depolymerizes while newly formed actin filaments assemble onto neighboring mitochondria. In interphase, actin waves locally fragment the mitochondrial network, enhancing mitochondrial content mixing to maintain organelle homeostasis. In dividing cells actin waves spatially mix mitochondria in the mother cell to ensure equitable partitioning of these organelles between daughter cells. Progress has been made in understanding the consequences of actin cycling as well as the underlying molecular mechanisms, but many questions remain, and here we review these elements. Also, we draw parallels between mitochondrially-associated actin cycling and cortical actin waves. These dynamic systems highlight the remarkable plasticity of the actin cytoskeleton.
