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

Osteoporosis (OP) is a common and fracture-prone skeletal disease characterized by deteriorated trabecular microstructure and pathologically involving various forms of regulated bone cell death. However, the exact role, cellular nature and regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis in OP are not fully understood. Here, we reported that OP femurs from ovariectomized (Ovx) mice exhibited pronounced iron deposition, ferroptosis, and transcriptional suppression of a key anti-ferroptotic factor GPX4 (glutathione peroxidase 4). GPX4 suppression was accompanied by hypermethylation of the Gpx4 promoter and an increase in DNA methyltransferases DNMT1/3a/3b and was transcriptionally promoted by repressive KLF5 and the transcriptional corepressors NCoR and SnoN. Conversely, DNMT inhibition with SGI-1027 reversed promoter hypermethylation, GPX4 suppression and ferroptotic osteoporosis. In cultured primary bone cells, ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) mimicking iron loading similarly induced GPX4 suppression and ferroptosis in osteoblasts but not in osteoclasts, which were rescued by siRNA-mediated individual knockdown of DNMT 1/3a/3b. Intriguingly, SGI-1027 alleviated the ferroptotic changes caused by FAC, but not by a GPX4 inactivator RSL3. More importantly, we generated a strain of osteoblast-specific Gpx4 haplo-deficient mice Gpx4
