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

Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), the master regulator of mitochondrial division (MD), interacts with the cytoskeletal elements, namely filamentous actin (F-actin), microtubules (MT), and septins that coincidentally converge at MD sites. However, the mechanistic contributions of these critical elements to, and their cooperativity in, MD remain poorly characterized. Emergent data indicate that the cytoskeleton plays combinatorial modulator, mediator, and effector roles in MD by 'priming' and 'channeling' Drp1 for mechanoenzymatic membrane remodeling. In this brief review, we will outline our current understanding of Drp1-cytoskeleton interactions, focusing on recent progress in the field and a plausible 'diffusion barrier' role for the cytoskeleton in MD.
