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

Disulfidptosis, a recently identified form of disulfide-dependent cell death, has emerged as a key regulator of cancer progression and therapy resistance. This review examines the molecular mechanisms connecting the redox balance within the tumor microenvironment (TME), outlines its crosstalk with traditional cell death pathways, and highlights its promise as a therapeutic strategy. Current evidence indicates that disulfidptosis is driven by glutathione (GSH) depletion and thiol-disulfide exchange imbalance, leading to endoplasmic reticulum stress and tumor cell vulnerability. Translational applications-including small-molecule activators and combination therapies-are discussed, alongside challenges in clinical translation and future research directions.
