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

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a common chronic inflammatory degenerative disease that causes lower back pain. However, the underlying mechanisms of IDD remain unclear. Ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) is a newly identified suppressor for ferroptosis. This study aims to investigate the role of FSP1 in IDD. Nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues in humans were collected and NP cells from rats were isolated to detect FSP1 expression pattern. The relationship between FSP1-mediated ferroptosis and apoptosis was identified using FSP1 inhibitor iFSP1. RNA sequencing was utilized to seek downstream molecules and related signaling pathways. Moreover, both exogenous recombinant FSP1 protein and endogenous small interfering RNA were implemented in this study to clarify the role of FSP1 in tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα)-mediated NP cell apoptosis. Ultimately, the underlying mechanisms of FSP1-related signaling pathway in IDD were uncovered both
