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

This study aimed to investigate the role of autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis in the antitumour mechanism of harmine (Har) and its crosstalk in ovarian cancer. By transmission electron microscopy, we found that compared with those in the control group, the cytoplasm of human ovarian cancer cells (SKOV3) treated with Har showed increased numbers of autophagic vesicles, decreased intracellular mitochondrial volume, increased bilayer membrane density, and decreased cristae. Western blot, immunofluorescence, and monodasylcadaverine (MDC) staining all suggested that Har promoted autophagy in SKOV3 cells. LY294002 and siFOXO3 rescued the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR/FOXO3 signalling pathway and the promotion of autophagy by Har. Additionally, the levels of ferroptosis- and pyroptosis-related proteins and the levels of Fe
