BioIron: Origin, Chemical Properties, and Biological Functions.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Iron is a highly abundant element, essential for life on earth and integral to various biological processes. It originated from stellar nucleosynthesis, particularly in supernovae type Ia, which produced iron used in planetary formation. Life's emergence on earth, about 3.5 billion years ago, occurred in an oxygen-free atmosphere, with iron playing a pivotal role in early biochemical reactions. Hydrothermal vents, rich in iron-sulfur (Fe-S) minerals, provided the conditions for prebiotic chemistry and CO
