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

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has long been recognized as an intracellular damage-associated molecular pattern, but emerging evidence reveals its role as an intercellular messenger driving post-infarction ventricular remodeling. This review systematically elaborates the transition of mtDNA from an "intracellular DAMP" to an "intercellular messenger" and proposes a conceptual framework termed the "three-threshold model", which integrates existing evidence but requires direct experimental validation. The three thresholds are defined as the release threshold (mitophagy-controlled mtDNA leakage), the transmission threshold (efficiency of intercellular transfer), and the activation threshold (sensitivity of STING signaling). mtDNA is transferred between cells via four modes-naked mtDNA, Ambra1
