Crosstalk between microwave ablation and ferroptosis: The next hot topic?
Review in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Microwave ablation has been one form of thermal ablation in treatments for many tumors, which can locally control unresectable tumors. Ferroptosis is iron-dependent cell death caused by the cumulative reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation products. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that ferroptosis might play a vital role in MWA-induced tumor suppression. In this article, we briefly illustrate the concept of ferroptosis, the related signal pathways and inducers, the basic principle of microwave ablation in killing tumors, and the key molecules released after microwave ablation. Then, we describe the cross-talking molecules between microwave ablation and ferroptosis, and discussed the potential mechanism of microwave ablation-induced ferroptosis. This review explores the therapeutic target of ferroptosis in enhancing the systemic antitumor effect after microwave ablation, providing theoretical support in combinational microwave ablation with pro-ferroptosis therapy.
