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

Background: Ferroptosis plays an important role in the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, the exact role of ferroptosis-related genes in the prognosis of AML patients is unclear. Methods: RNA sequencing data and the clinicopathological characteristics of AML patients were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database, and ferroptosis-related genes were obtained from the FerrDb database. Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis were performed to identify ferroptosis-related gene signatures. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) were performed to explore the biological functions of the ferroptosis-related genes. Finally, ferroptosis of AML cells was induced by erastin and sulfasalazine to detect the changes in the expression of relevant prognostic genes and explore the underlying mechanisms using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results: Seven ferroptosis-related gene signatures ( Conclusions: A novel signature involving seven ferroptosis-related genes that could accurately predict AML prognosis was identified. Further, the Food and Drug Administration-approved drug, sulfasalazine, was demonstrated for the first time to induce the ferroptosis of AML cells.
