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): Serum MOTS-c correlated negatively with platelets and troponin I in MI patients, suggesting the peptide may help, alongside other parameters, in diagnostic and therapeutic evaluation of MI.
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
- inappropriate endpoint: Endogenous MOTS-c levels were measured as a biomarker. The compound was not given, so no effect of MOTS-c administration can be inferred.
- abstract only: Only the abstract is available. Sample sizes, methods and full results are not reported in the record.
- confounding: Groups were defined by angiography findings, with no stated adjustment for confounders; correlations were exploratory.
- small or imprecise: Group sizes are not stated, and the correlations are modest with p-values near 0.05, with no confidence intervals.
No risk-of-bias assessment has been published for this study’s results.
Claims this study informs
- Improves metabolic health: not eligible (not primary study) for “Insulin sensitivity, glucose control or body weight”
- Is safe for human administration: not eligible (not primary study) for “Adverse events, serious adverse events and discontinuations”

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).
