Identification and validation of ferroptosis-related gene signature in intervertebral disc degeneration.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
Lower back pain (LBP) is a leading cause of disability in the elderly and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is the major contributor to LBP. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered programmed cell death, characterized by iron-dependent lethal lipid peroxidation. Growing evidence has shown that ferroptosis plays important roles in various human diseases. However, the underlying mechanism of ferroptosis in IDD remains elusive. This study is aimed to uncover the key roles of ferroptosis in the pathogenesis and progression of IDD comprehensively. To investigate the ferroptosis related differentially expressed genes (FRDEGs) in IDD, we analyzed the microarray data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Then we performed functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, and screened out the hub FRDEGs. To further evaluate the predictive value of these hub FRDEGs, we performed ROC analysis based on the GSE124272 dataset. A total of 80 FRDEGs were identified, including 20 downregulated and 60 upregulated FRDEGs. The FRDEGs were primarily involved in the biological processes of response to chemical, and response to stress. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the FRDEGs were mainly involved in ferroptosis, TNF signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, and IL-17 signaling pathway. Ten hub OSRDEGs were obtained according to the PPI analysis, including
