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

The outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) creates a boundary that imports most of the mitochondrial proteome while removing extraneous or damaged proteins. How the OMM senses aberrant proteins and remodels to maintain OMM integrity remains unresolved. Previously, we identified a mitochondrial remodeling mechanism called the mitochondrial-derived compartment (MDC) that removes a subset of the mitochondrial proteome. Here, we show that MDCs specifically sequester proteins localized only at the OMM, providing an explanation for how select mitochondrial proteins are incorporated into MDCs. Remarkably, selective sorting into MDCs also occurs within the OMM, as subunits of the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM) complex are excluded from MDCs unless assembly of the TOM complex is impaired. Considering that overloading the OMM with mitochondrial membrane proteins or mistargeted tail-anchored membrane proteins induces MDCs to form and sequester these proteins, we propose that one functional role of MDCs is to create an OMM-enriched trap that segregates and sequesters excess proteins from the mitochondrial surface.
