Mitotherapy in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases: A systematic review of preclinical studies.
Synthesis in BMC neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAlzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are prevalent neurodegenerative disorders and strongly affect both the patients' lives and their caregivers. Strategy to improve and restore mitochondrial function, as well as to treat mitochondria-associated diseases, as observed in the pathophysiology of AD and PD. The current study aimed to investigate the potential of mitotherapy in AD and PD in preclinical studies.
methodsWe conducted a systematic search of articles in English related to mitotherapy in AD and PD animal models published until October 2024 in the selected bibliographic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, and Google Scholar, and the reference lists of relevant review articles published. The quality of the final selected studies was assessed using the Collaborative Approach to Meta-Analysis and Review of Animal Studies (CAMARADES) checklists and the SYRCLE risk of bias tool. The initial search resulted in 231 studies, and after screening the titles and abstracts, 30 studies were recognized. Finally, 7 studies met the inclusion criteria.
resultsDespite restricted knowledge of the mitotherapy mechanisms, evidence shows that exogenous mitochondria exert neuroprotective effects via improving mitochondrial function, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in preclinical models of AD and PD.
conclusionThis systematic review summarizes the preclinical studies on mitotherapy and provides evidence favoring mitochondria transplantation's protective effects in animal PD and AD models.
