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

backgroundOvarian cancer (OV) is the leading cause of death among gynecological malignancies. This study aimed to investigate the influence of Icariside II on OV in vitro and in vivo and to elucidate whether Icariside II induces ferroptosis in OV cells by regulating SLC7A11 expression.

methodsSKOV3 cells and OV nude mice were treated with Icariside II, a control-plasmid or an SLC7A11-plasmid. EdU assay, flow cytometry, wound-healing assay, and Transwell assays were used to assess cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion respectively. Total iron, Fe

resultsIcariside II-induced ferroptosis in OV cells was confirmed by elevated Fe

conclusionIcariside II induces ferroptosis in OV by downregulating SLC7A11 expression in vitro and in vivo. Our study identified Icariside II as a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of OV.
