Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling in heavy metals-induced oxidative stress.
Review in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 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
Organisms encounter reactive oxidants through intrinsic metabolism and environmental exposure to toxicants. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS) are generally considered detrimental because they induce oxidative stress. In order to combat oxidative stress, a potential modulator of cellular defense nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its endogenous inhibitor Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) operate as a common, genetically preserved intrinsic defense system. There has been a significant increase in the amount of harmful metalloids and metals that individuals are exposed to through their food, water, and air, primarily due to human activities. Many studies have looked at the connection between the emergence of different ailments in humans and ecological exposure to metalloids, i.e., arsenic (As) and metals viz., chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), and lead (Pb). It is known that they can produce ROS in several organs by both direct and indirect means. Studies suggest that Nrf2 signaling is a crucial mechanism in maintaining antioxidant balance and can have two roles, depending on the particular biological setting. From one perspective, Nrf2 is an essential defense mechanism against metal-induced toxicity. Still, it may also operate as a catalyst for metal-induced carcinogenesis in situations involving protracted exposure and persistent activation. Therefore, this review aims to provide an overview of the antioxidant defense mechanism of Nrf2-Keap1 signaling and the interrelation between Nrf2 signaling and the toxic elements.
