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

Background/Aims: Osteoarthritis typically features cartilage degeneration, synovial fibrosis, and bone remodeling. While clinical Western medicine therapies can restore joint functions, long-term use may exacerbate cartilage damage. This study was designed to investigate the impact of peroxiredoxin 3 (PRDX3) on ferroptosis and oxidative stress in osteoarthritis cartilage injury and its potential mechanism. Materials and Methods: In the osteoarthritis model, the expression of PRDX3 was downregulated. Single-cell analysis revealed that the PRDX3 gene was expressed in bone cells of osteoarthritis patients. Results: Sh-PRDX3 promoted osteoarthritis cartilage injury in the mouse model via the induction of oxidative stress. PRDX3 suppressed reactive oxygen species accumulation and mitochondria-dependent ferroptosis in the in vitro model or mice model of osteoarthritis. PRDX3 induced SIRT3 to reduce SIRT3 ubiquitin. Moreover, METTL3-mediated m6A modification decreases PRDX3 mRNA stability by YTHDF1 in the osteoarthritis cartilage injury model. Conclusion: These findings indicate that METTL3-mediated m6A modification decreases PRDX3 mRNA stability to relieve ferroptosis and oxidative stress in the model of osteoarthritis cartilage injury in a YTHDF1-dependent manner. Targeting METTL3 is thus a potentially effective therapeutic strategy for patients with osteoarthritis cartilage injury.
