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-dependent form of non-apoptotic cell death characterized by excessive lipid peroxidation and associated with a plethora of pathological conditions in the liver. Emerging evidence supports the notion that dysregulated metabolic pathways and impaired iron homeostasis play a role in the progression of liver disease via ferroptosis. Although the molecular mechanisms by which ferroptosis causes disease are poorly understood, several ferroptosis-associated genes and pathways have been implicated in liver disease. Here, we review the physiological role of the liver in processing nutrients, our current understanding of iron metabolism, the characteristics of ferroptosis, and the mechanisms that regulate ferroptosis. In addition, we summarize the role of ferroptosis in the pathogenesis of liver disease, including liver injury, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting ferroptosis for managing liver disease.
