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

Objective: The current study is aimed at elucidating the mechanisms underlying the involvement of ferroptosis in atherosclerosis (AS) and exploring potential therapeutic targets. Methods: Endothelial function and lipid peroxidation were assessed in vitro using HCAECs treated with OX-LDL. SLC7A11, GPX4, TfR1, and FTH1 were analyzed by western blot, respectively. Representative markers of ferroptosis including LDH, MDA, 4-HNE, GSH, and iron content were detected. HTR2B miRNA (OE-HTR2B) and controls (OE-NC, empty vector) were transfected. AS was induced in ApoE Results: RNA-Seq analysis revealed dysregulated Conclusion: HTR2B suppressed ferroptosis by promoting the PI3K/AKT axis, enhanced cellular viability, and exhibited a protective role in AS.
