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

Ferroptosis, a form of lipid peroxidation-mediated cell death, plays a critical role in acute kidney injury (AKI) progression. Tripterine is an active component isolated from traditional medicinal herbs and exhibits diverse biological and pharmacological activities. However, poor bioavailability and cytotoxicity of tripterine has limited its further clinical application, and the underlying action mechanism of tripterine against AKI remains largely unknown. This study aimed to overcome these shortcomings by formulating tripterine into selenized phytosomes and to investigate the therapeutic effects of selenized tripterine phytosomes (Se@Tri-PTs) on ferroptosis-associated AKI. The data showed that Se@Tri-PTs improved the antioxidant capacity of tripterine while reducing its cytotoxicity. Upon erastin or RSL3 stimulation, Se@Tri-PTs maintained intracellular glutathione levels, decreased lipid ROS generation, and suppressed ferroptosis. Mechanistically, Se@Tri-PTs blocked autophagy-mediated degradation of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), thereby suppressing ferroptosis. Furthermore, Se@Tri-PTs maintained dual-specificity protein phosphatase 1 (DUSP1) protein levels in erastin-stimulated cells, and
