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

Ferroptosis is an iron depend cell death which caused by lipid peroxidation. Abnormal iron metabolism and high intracellular iron content are the characteristics of most cancer cells. Iron is a promoter of cell growth and proliferation. However, iron also could take part in Fenton reaction to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The intercellular ROS could induce lipid peroxidation, which is necessary for ferroptosis. Iron metabolism mainly includes three parts: iron uptake, storage and efflux. Therefore, iron metabolism-related genes could regulate intercellular iron content and status, which can be involved ferroptosis. In recent years, the application of nanoparticles in cancer therapy research has become more and more extensive. The iron-based nanoparticles (iron-based NPs) can release ferrous (Fe
