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

Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is a type of female cancer that affects millions of families worldwide. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main reason for CSCC formation, and squamous intraepithelial lesions (SILs) induced by high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection are considered precancerous lesions. A previous study reported that HPV-infected cancer cells were able to counteract lipid peroxidation for survival. Recent research has reported that ferroptosis acts in an iron-dependent lipid peroxidation manner to kill cancer cells, and it is proposed as a new approach for female cancer therapy. Here, we investigated the role of ferroptosis throughout SIL development into CSCC. We found that ferroptosis occurred in SIL, but anti-ferroptosis emerged in CSCC. Our data further indicated that an antiferroptotic effect was formed in response to persistent ferroptosis and then promoted oncogenesis. Altogether, we provide novel insight into ferroptosis in cervical SIL development and suggest a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of CSCC.
