Advances in mitochondrial dysfunction in radiation tissue injury.
Review in Frontiers in physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 17 papers.
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.
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
Radiation-induced tissue injury is a major limitation in cancer radiotherapy, often leading to collateral damage in healthy tissues. While the nucleus has long been considered the principal target of ionizing radiation, emerging evidence underscores the pivotal role of mitochondria in mediating radiation-induced damage. This review provides a comprehensive overview of mitochondrial dysfunction in various irradiated tissues, including the intestine, hematopoietic system, heart, lung, brain, and skin. Key mitochondrial alterations-such as disrupted dynamics, impaired energy metabolism, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and activation of apoptotic and senescence pathways-are highlighted as central mechanisms underlying radiation pathology. Additionally, we summarize the involvement of crucial signaling pathways such as AMP-activated protein kinase/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (AMPK/PGC-1α),nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/antioxidant response element/mitochondrial transcription factor A (Nrf2/ARE/TFAM), and NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in regulating mitochondrial responses to radiation stress. A deeper understanding of mitochondrial involvement provides novel avenues for radioprotection and therapeutic interventions in oncology.
