Examining the expression levels of ferroptosis-related genes in angiographically determined coronary artery disease patients.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundCardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, with several conditions being affected by oxidative stress. Ferroptosis, recently identified programmed cell death mechanism, is relies on oxidative stress. This study aimed to determine the expressions of the genes involved in the molecular pathways of oxidative stress and ferroptosis and the association of these genes with CAD risk factors in CAD and non-CAD individuals. METHODS AND
resultsThe blood samples of individuals who underwent coronary angiography were collected and divided according to CAD status. Total RNA isolation was performed using the PAXgene RNA isolation kit from the whole blood samples. The mRNA expression levels of RTN3, GPX4, CAT, HMOX1, ELOVL5, SLC25A1, SLC7A11, and ACSL4 genes were determined using Real-Time PCR. Biochemical analyses were done before coronary angiography, and the results were evaluated statistically. The expression levels of the CAT gene are significantly lower in the CAD group when compared to non-CAD. HMOX1 expression levels are positively correlated with stenosis percentage, Gensini, and SYNTAX scores in the CAD group. RTN3, SLC25A1, and GPX4 mRNA expressions are correlated with HDL-C levels. Moreover, HbA1c levels and BMI, correlate negatively with ACSL4 expression in non-CAD controls. Also, ELOVL5 expression is negatively correlated with total bilirubin and direct bilirubin levels in the CAD group.
conclusionsIn this study, the genes related to oxidative stress and ferroptosis were found associated with biochemical parameters associated with CAD risk. These preliminary results may provide a new perspective to further studies investigating the reasons behind the identified associations.
