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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract driven by complex interactions among genetic susceptibility, barrier dysfunction, and immune dysregulation. Mitophagy, the selective autophagic clearance of damaged mitochondria, has emerged as a key regulator of intestinal homeostasis and immune balance. Impaired mitophagy compromises epithelial barrier integrity, amplifies inflammatory signaling, and promotes disease progression. This review summarizes the molecular mechanisms of mitophagy, examines its involvement in IBD pathogenesis across intestinal epithelial and immune cell compartments, and highlights mitophagy-modulating compounds that may inform the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
