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

Adult hippocampal neurogenesis, crucial for maintaining neural homeostasis, is integral to neurodegeneration. We previously identified Miro2 as a key regulator of mitochondrial dynamics and survival in hippocampal neural stem cells with potential relevance to Alzheimer's disease. Here, using TurboID-based proximity labeling, we explore Miro2's interaction networks and identify sixty-six unique interactors specific to hippocampal neural stem cells. Functional enrichment analysis reveals that these proteins are crucial for mitochondrial organization, transport, and neurodegeneration. CISD1 emerges as a significant interaction partner. Knockdown of Miro2 and CISD1 impairs mitochondrial trafficking in adult hippocampal stem cells, disrupted stem cell differentiation with increased cytotoxicity. Rescue experiments partially reverse cell death, and both Miro2 and CISD1 show increased expression and interaction during differentiation. These findings suggest the Miro2-CISD1 axis as a critical regulator of mitochondrial remodeling and neurogenesis, providing a framework for future studies on how mitochondrial dynamics contribute to neurodegenerative disease mechanisms.
