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

Programmed cell death is a mechanism that is crucial for numerous physiological and pathological processes. Whereas p53-mediated apoptosis is a major cell death pathway in cancer, accumulating evidence indicates that p53 also has crucial roles in controlling different non-apoptotic cell death (NACD) pathways, including ferroptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, autophagy-dependent cell death, entotic cell death, parthanatos and paraptosis, and may regulate PANoptosis, cuproptosis and disulfidptosis. Notably, the function of p53 in these NACDs substantially contributes to its biological effects, particularly in cancer development and other pathological processes. In this Review, we discuss recent advances in understanding the roles and underlying mechanisms of p53-mediated NACDs, focusing on ferroptosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis. We discuss the complex and distinct physiological settings in which NACDs are regulated by p53, and potential targeting of p53-regulated NACDs for the treatment of cancer and other human diseases. Finally, we highlight several important questions concerning p53-regulated NACDs that warrant further investigation.
