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

Neurons have adapted the transport and positioning of mitochondria to fit their extended shape and high energy needs. To sustain mitochondrial function, neurons developed systems that allow local biogenesis and adaption to locally regulate mitochondrial form and function. Likewise, fine-tuned degradative systems are required to protect the neurons from mitochondrial dysfunction. Throughout both domains of mitostasis, the local synthesis of the mitochondrial damage-induced kinase PINK1 emerges as a central player. Along with other nuclear encoded mitochondrial proteins, its mRNA associates with mitochondria to sustain mitochondrial function locally. It also regulates mitochondrial degradation, via regulation of proteases, the generation of mitochondria-derived vesicles and mitophagy. In this review, we provide a general overview of the mechanisms governing mitochondrial health in neurons, with a special focus on the role of PINK1 in this endeavor.
