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

There is a continuous increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer. A deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms of thyroid cancer could significantly improve thyroid cancer management. Newly discovered type of programmed cell death, ferroptosis, has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in many cancers. Mounting evidence shows that there is a close association between ferroptosis and thyroid cancer, which offer a promising therapeutic strategy for thyroid cancer. Ferroptosis is expected to emerge as a novel therapeutic target. Regrettably, the exact role of ferroptosis in thyroid cancer is not yet completely understood. Further, there is currently no summary of ferroptosis in thyroid cancer progression and treatment. Hence, in this review, we aim to revisit the pathological process of thyroid cancer and reveal the role of ferroptosis in thyroid cancer. In addition, we provide evidence that ferroptosis inducers could suppress the growth of thyroid cancer cells. Lastly, we discuss the potential application of ferroptosis inducers in thyroid cancer treatment, as well as possible impediments and corresponding strategies. The relationship between ferroptosis and thyroid cancer will be better understood through this review, which may offer a novel insight into thyroid cancer therapy.
