Nrf2 in human cancers: biological significance and therapeutic potential.
Review in American journal of cancer research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is able to control the redox balance in the cells responding to oxidative damage and other stress signals. The Nrf2 upregulation can elevate the levels of antioxidant enzymes to support against damage and death. In spite of protective function of Nrf2 in the physiological conditions, the stimulation of Nrf2 in the cancer has been in favour of tumorigenesis. Since the dysregulation of molecular pathways and mutations/deletions are common in tumors, Nrf2 can be a promising therapeutic target. The Nrf2 overexpression can prevent cell death in tumor and by increasing the survival rate of cancer cells, ensures the carcinogenesis. Moreover, the induction of Nrf2 can promote the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. The Nrf2 upregulation stimulates EMT to increase cancer metastasis. Furthermore, regarding the protective function of Nrf2, its stimulation triggers chemoresistance. The natural products can regulate Nrf2 in the cancer therapy and reverse drug resistance. Moreover, nanostructures can specifically target Nrf2 signaling in cancer therapy. The current review discusses the potential function of Nrf2 in the proliferation, metastasis and drug resistance. Then, the capacity of natural products and nanostructures for suppressing Nrf2-mediated cancer progression is discussed.
