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

Inducing ferroptotic cell death has been recognized as a promising approach in cancer therapy. However, ferroptosis can provoke tumor infiltration by myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) through HMGB1 secretion, causing a tumor suppressive immune response. On the other hand, ferroptosis also occurs the immune cells due to its non-selective properties, which can compromise anti-tumor immunity. To address these challenges, a two-pronged approach is proposed, encompassing selectively triggered ferroptosis in tumor cells and HMGB1 blockade, aimed at eliciting systemic anti-tumor immunity and alleviating immunosuppression. Herein, GSH-specific driven nanoplatform is composed of uniform FeOOH nanospindles coated with tetrasulfide bond-bridged mesoporous organosilica (DMOS) shell, and loaded with the HMGB1 inhibitor, glycyrrhizic acid (GA). This nanoplatform is endowed with high glutathione (GSH) depletion efficiency and exhibits highly efficient Fe
