Gene Therapy Tools for Diseases Caused by Mutations of the Mitochondrial Genome.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations are associated with a diverse spectrum of diseases and pose a significant threat to human health. Despite their importance as therapeutic targets, the unique structural and electrochemical properties of mitochondria-most notably the impermeable inner mitochondrial membrane and the high membrane potential-present formidable challenges for the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents. Currently, there are no approved curative treatments for patients harboring pathogenic mtDNA mutations. In this review, we discuss recent advancements in gene therapy for mitochondrial genome-related disorders, with a particular focus on allotopic expression of mtDNA-encoded genes and mitochondrial genome editing technologies. We conclude that allotopic expression currently stands as the most promising approach for near-term clinical implementation. But we also pay great attention to programmable nucleases and base editors utilizing RNA-independent DNA recognition which are evolving with remarkable speed.
