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 are multifunctional organelles that play a crucial role in numerous cellular processes, including oncogene-induced senescence. Recent studies have demonstrated that mitochondria undergo notable morphological and functional changes during senescence, with mitochondria dysregulation being a critical factor contributing to the induction of this state. To elucidate the intricate and dynamic structure of these organelles, high-resolution visualization techniques are imperative. Electron microscopy offers nanometer-scale resolution images, enabling the comprehensive study of organelles' architecture. This chapter provides a detailed guide for preparing fixed samples from cultured cells for electron microscopy imaging. It also describes various quantification methods to accurately assess organellar parameters, including morphometric measurements of mitochondrial shape, cristae structure, and mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum contact sites. These analyses yield valuable insights into the status of subcellular organelles, advancing our understanding of their involvement in cellular senescence and disease.
