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

As we have learned more about mitochondria over the past decades, including about their essential cellular roles and how altered mitochondrial biology results in disease, it has become apparent that they are not just powerplants pumping out ATP at the whim of the cell. Rather, mitochondria are dynamic information and energy processors that play crucial roles in directing dozens of cellular processes and behaviors. They provide instructions to enact programs that regulate various cellular operations, such as complex metabolic networks, signaling and innate immunity, and even control cell fate, dictating when cells should divide, differentiate or die. To help current and future generations of cell biologists incorporate the dynamic, multifaceted nature of mitochondria and assimilate modern discoveries into their scientific framework, mitochondria need a 21st century 'rebranding'. In this Opinion article, we argue that mitochondria should be considered as the 'Chief Executive Organelle' - the CEO - of the cell.
