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

Mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) are a novel class of bioactive microproteins that modify cell metabolism. The the eight MDPs that been characterized (e.g., humanin, MOTS-c, SHLPs1-6) attenuate disease pathology including Alzheimer's disease, prostate cancer, macular degeneration, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. The association between disease and human genetic variation in MDPs is underexplored, although two polymorphisms in humanin and MOTS-c associate with cognitive decline and diabetes, respectively, suggesting a precise role for MDPs in disease-modification. There could be hundreds of additional MDPs that have yet to be discovered. Altogether, MDPs could explain unanswered biological and metabolic questions and are part of a growing field of novel microproteins encoded by small open reading frames. In this review, the current state of MDPs are summarized with an emphasis on biological and therapeutic implications.
