The segregation of organelles and organellar genomes across eukaryotic biology.
Review in Biochemical Society transactions, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Eukaryotic cells are characterized by the presence of organelles such as mitochondria and, in the case of plants and certain protists, plastids, both of which often contain their own genomes. Accurate distribution of replicated organelles and their genomes to daughter cells is crucial for cell survival and propagation across all eukaryotic organisms. Unlike nuclear DNA, which follows a well-characterized segregation process via the mitotic spindle, organelle genomes are inherited through more diverse and less-understood mechanisms. Ensuring proper organelle genome inheritance is essential for maintaining cellular energy production, metabolic functions, and overall viability. Because organelle and organelle genome segregation lack a universal mechanism, different organisms employ various strategies that include stochastic distribution and active cytoskeletal transport and membrane tethering to prevent the loss of essential genetic material while supporting organelle division and turnover. This review provides an overview of organelle and organellar DNA segregation mechanisms in diverse eukaryotic systems before focusing on the tripartite attachment complex as a specialized adaptation in kinetoplastid parasites.
