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-associated membranes (MAMs) are pivotal in cellular homeostasis, mediating communication between the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. They are increasingly recognized for their role in atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD). This review delves into the cellular perspective of MAMs' impact on atherosclerosis and CAD, highlighting their influence on disease progression and the potential for therapeutic intervention. MAMs are implicated in key pathophysiological processes such as the generation of reactive oxygen species, calcium homeostasis, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, autophagy, lipid synthesis and transport, and energy metabolism-fundamental to the development and progression of atherosclerosis and CAD. The complex interplay of MAMs with these pathological processes underscores their potential as therapeutic targets. This review synthesizes current understanding and emphasizes the need for further research to elucidate the multifaceted roles of MAMs in atherosclerosis and CAD, offering avenues for developing novel strategies aimed at improving mitochondrial health and mitigating the impact of these conditions.
