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

Recent studies indicated that the dysregulation of mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) could be a significant hub in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, little has been known about how MAM altered in PD. This study was aimed to observe morphological changes and analyze proteomic profiles of MAM in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced PD mouse models. In MPTP-treated mice, transmission electron microscopy was applied for MAM ultrastructural visualization. Nano ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrum and bioinformatic analysis were adopted to obtain underlying molecular data of MAM fractions. The loosened, shortened and reduced MAM tethering was found in substantia nigral neurons from MPTP-treated mice. In midbrain MAM proteomics, 158 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified between two groups. Specific DEPs were validated by western blot and exhibited significantly statistical changes, aligning with proteomic results. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that membrane, cytoplasm and cell projection were three major localizations for DEPs. Biological processes including metabolism, lipid transport, and immunological and apoptotic signaling pathways were greatly affected. For consensus MAM proteins, the enriched pathway analysis revealed the potential relationship between neurodegenerative diseases and MAM. Several biological processes such as peroxisome function and clathrin-mediated endocytosis, were clustered, which provided additional insights into the fundamental molecular pathways associated with MAM. In our study, we demonstrated disrupted ER-mitochondria contacts in an MPTP-induced PD mouse model. The underlying signatures of MAM were revealed by proteomics and bioinformatic analysis, providing valuable insights into its potential role in PD pathogenesis.
