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 a nonapoptotic form of programmed cell death triggered by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) depended on iron overload. Although most investigations focus on the relationship between ferroptosis and cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and ischemia/reperfusion injury, research on ferroptosis induced by immune-related inflammatory diseases, especially sepsis, is scarce. Sestrin2 (Sesn2), a highly evolutionary and stress-responsive protein, is critically involved in defense against oxidative stress challenges. Upregulated expression of Sesn2 has been observed in preliminary experiments to have an antioxidative function in the context of an inflammatory response. Nevertheless, the underlying function of Sesn2 in inflammation-mediated ferroptosis in the immune system remains uncertain. The current study aimed to demonstrate the protective effect of Sesn2 on ferroptosis and even correlations with ferroptosis and the functions of ferroptotic-dendritic cells (DCs) stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The mechanism underlying DCs protection from LPS-induced ferroptosis by Sesn2 was further explored in this study. We found that the immune response of DCs assessed by co-stimulatory phenotypes was gradually enhanced at the peak time of 12 h upon 1 μg/ml LPS stimulation while ferroptosis in DCs treated with LPS at 24 h was significantly detected. LPS-induced ferroptosis showed a suppressive impact on DCs in phenotypic maturation, which was conversely relieved by the ferroptotic inhibitor. Compared with wild-type (WT) mice, DCs in genetic defective mice of Sesn2 (Sesn2
