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 is an iron-dependent cell death, which is distinct from the other types of regulated cell death. Considerable studies have demonstrated that ferroptosis is involved in the biological process of various cancers. However, the role of ferroptosis in cervical cancer (CC) remains unclear. This study aims to explore the ferroptosis-related prognostic genes (FRPGs) expression profiles and their prognostic values in CC. Methods: The ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and FerrDb databases. Core FRGs were determined by the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) website. FRPGs were identified using univariate and multivariate Cox regressions, and the ferroptosis-related prognostic model was constructed. FRPGs were verified in clinical specimens. The relationship between FRPGs and tumor infiltrating immune cells were assessed through the CIBERSORT algorithm and the LM22 signature matrix. Bioinformatics functions of FRPGs were explored with the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). Results: Thirty-three significantly up-regulated and 28 down-regulated FRGs were screened from databases [P<0.05; false discovery rate (FDR) <0.05; and |log Conclusions: In this study, the features of FRPGs in CC were pictured. The results implicated that targeting ferroptosis may be a new reliable biomarker and an alternative therapy for CC.
