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

purposeHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common fatal cancers, with no curative therapy available. The concept of ferroptosis is attracting increasing attention in cancer research. Herein, we describe the use of a nanodevice as an effective strategy for inducing ferroptosis to manage HCC.

methodsTo improve ferroptosis-induced treatment of HCC, we constructed sorafenib (sor)-loaded MIL-101(Fe) nanoparticles (NPs) [MIL-101(Fe)@sor] and evaluated the efficacy of ferroptosis-based HCC therapy after co-administration with the iRGD peptide both in vitro and in vivo.

resultsThe prepared MIL-101(Fe) NPs have several promising characteristics including drug-loading, controllable release, peroxidase activity, biocompatibility, and T2 magnetic resonance imaging ability. MIL-101(Fe)@sor NPs significantly induced ferroptosis in HepG2 cells, increased the levels of lipid peroxidation and malondialdehyde, and reduced those of glutathione and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX-4). The in vivo results showed that the MIL-101(Fe)@sor NPs significantly inhibited tumor progression and decreased GPX-4 expression levels, with negligible long-term toxicity. Meanwhile, co-administration of MIL-101(Fe)@sor NPs with iRGD significantly accelerated ferroptosis.

conclusionOur findings suggest that MIL-101(Fe)@sor NPs co-administered with iRGD are a promising strategy for inducing HCC ferroptosis.
