Unraveling the Mystery of Hemoglobin in Hypoxia-Accelerated Neurodegenerative Diseases.
Review in Biomolecules, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hypoxic stress is increasingly recognized as a convergent pathological factor in various age-related neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), encompassing both acute events such as stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI), and chronic disorders including Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Recent studies have revealed that hemoglobin (Hb), beyond its classical oxygen-transport function, exhibits unexpected expression and functional relevance within the central nervous system. Notably, both cerebral and circulating Hb appear to be dysregulated under hypoxic and aging conditions, potentially influencing disease onset and progression of these diseases. However, Hb's impact on neurodegeneration appears to be context-dependent: in acute NDDs, it may exert neuroprotective effects by stabilizing mitochondrial and iron homeostasis, whereas in chronic NDDs, aberrant Hb accumulation may contribute to toxic protein aggregation and neuronal dysfunction. This review provides an integrative overview of the emerging roles of Hb in hypoxia-related NDDs, highlighting both shared and distinct mechanisms across acute and chronic conditions. We further discuss potential therapeutic implications of targeting Hb-related pathways in NDDs and identify key gaps for future investigation.
