Intervention and comparator
What each group received. Related peptides, analogs and combinations are never treated as the compound itself.
What the authors reported
As stated in the sources. This is the authors’ account, not Peptide Library’s assessment.
Adverse events
None reported. That is not evidence of safety, and how safety was monitored isn’t described.
The authors concluded (paraphrased): The authors concluded that a combined panel of circulating Humanin, MOTS-c and GAS5 plus exosomal miR-21/miR-103 is a promising non-invasive biomarker approach for risk stratification of prostate diseases.
Peptide Library’s assessment
An automated assessment, made by AI separately from the authors’ conclusions and not reviewed by a person. How risk of bias is assessed.
Limitations
- other: MOTS-c was measured only as an endogenous circulating biomarker. It was never administered, so no intervention effect can be inferred.
- abstract only: Only the abstract is available in the record, and methods details such as recruitment and the assays are not described.
- inappropriate endpoint: Endogenous biomarker levels were measured for diagnosis; no MOTS-c was given and no clinical outcome was assessed.
- inappropriate population: Patients with suspected prostate cancer are not an obesity, insulin resistance or diabetes population.
No risk-of-bias assessment has been published for this study’s results.

These assessments describe published research. Records marked automated were produced by AI under the published methodology and have not been reviewed by a person; they can contain errors. None of this is medical advice, not a statement about any product’s safety for human use, and not a regulatory approval. Peptide Library’s vendor and partner relationships play no part in them (editorial independence).
