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

Mitophagy, a crucial mitochondrial quality control system for cellular stress adaptation, is a key focus in pathophysiology and drug discovery. Developing a simple and versatile mitophagy flux assay is vital for advancing our understanding of cellular responses. Addressing a gap in systematic methods, we employ the photoactivatable fluorescent protein mito-Kaede in C2C12 myocytes, demonstrating its remarkable versatility in quantifying mitophagy flux responses under various stimuli, including carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP), TNF-α, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and hypoxia. This study underscores the validity and distinctive advantages of the mito-Kaede assay through comparative analysis with conventional assays including Western blotting (WB), potentially providing valuable insights for both mitophagy flux analysis and drug development.
