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

backgroundThe mitochondrial integrated stress response (ISR) represents a fundamental cellular adaptation mechanism with dual protective and pathological roles. We critically analyzed current literature on ISR mechanisms, focusing on recent paradigm shifts including the 2020 discovery of the OMA1-DELE1-HRI axis, emerging controversies over context-dependent activation patterns, and the January 2025 clinical trial failures that have reshaped the therapeutic landscape.

methodsWe reviewed recent literature (2020-2025) examining ISR mechanisms, clinical trials, and therapeutic developments through comprehensive database searches.

resultsThe field has evolved from simple linear pathway models to recognition of complex, context-dependent networks. Recent findings reveal that ISR activation mechanisms vary dramatically based on cellular metabolic state, with distinct pathways operating in proliferating versus differentiated cells. The "dark microglia" phenotype in neurodegeneration and DR5-mediated apoptotic switches exemplify pathological ISR manifestations, while adaptive responses include metabolic reprogramming and quality control enhancement.

conclusionsThe 2025 failures of DNL343 and ABBV-CLS-7262 in ALS trials underscore the need for precision medicine approaches that account for context-dependent ISR functions, temporal dynamics, and disease-specific mechanisms.
