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

The olive oil-production sector engages with the environment on multiple levels, and the valorization of olive pomace (OP) has emerged as a key strategy to improve the entire system's sustainability. Numerous studies have investigated the biological effects of OP phenolic fraction for nutraceutical applications, highlighting its antioxidant properties. This study aimed to assess the effect of an OP extract (OPE) and its phenolic content on ferroptosis induced by RAS-selective lethal 3 (RSL3), an inhibitor of glutathione peroxidase 4. After characterization of OPE phenolic composition, its antioxidant properties were confirmed through the Fenton reaction assay. Subsequently, we examined the effect of OPE on ter-butyl hydroperoxide-induced ROS generation and lipid peroxidation in TPH-1 and HIECs cells and found that OPE reduced ROS and lipid peroxidation. RSL3 decreased the number of vital cells, which was associated with an elevation in ROS and lipid peroxidation, and a reduction in GSH. Interestingly, all these detrimental effects were reversed by OPE. Furthermore, OPE was also found to significantly increase GSH and the GSH/GSSG ratio per se. In conclusion, the fact that OPE decreases ROS and lipid peroxidation induced by RSL3 and augments GSH and cell viability suggests that OPE has potential as a ferroptosis inhibitor.
