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

Mitochondria are essential organelles whose functions depend on coordinated multiprotein complexes, yet their composition and organization remain incomplete. Here, we present a large-scale map of mitochondrial protein complexes by integrating affinity purification of 740 endogenously GFP-tagged mitochondrial proteins with biochemical co-fractionation of mitochondrial extracts from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) grown under respiratory conditions. Mass spectrometry identifies 13,716 high-confidence protein associations and defines 556 heteromeric complexes, many previously unknown. These assemblies reveal factors involved in coenzyme Q6 biosynthesis, membrane contact sites, phospholipid transport, and coordination with the MICOS complex during respiration. We further link 538 assemblies to 294 candidate human disease genes and construct a conservation map of 852,146 predicted mitochondrial interactions across 271 genomes, and validate key predictions in human cell lines and mouse brain tissue. Together, this work provides a comprehensive mitochondrial interactome, assigning functions to poorly characterized proteins, and offering insights into mitochondrial biology and disease-associated assemblies.
