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

Background: Ovarian cancer poses the greatest threat to survival among gynecologic cancers in women. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as critical regulators in oncogenesis. The current study aimed to elucidate the function and regulatory mechanism of lncRNA KRT7-AS in ovarian cancer. Methods: The clinical significance of KRT7-AS was evaluated through bioinformatics analysis of data from public repositories. KRT7-AS expression was examined by RT-qPCR and fluorescence Results: Patients exhibiting high KRT7-AS expression had a significantly lower survival rate. Functional assays demonstrated that KRT7-AS overexpression enhanced tumorigenic behaviors, including cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis, whereas its knockdown suppressed these malignant phenotypes. KRT7-AS depletion induced ferroptosis, as indicated by increased MMP and ROS levels, and the accumulation of lipid peroxidation and Fe Conclusions: These findings suggest that KRT7-AS has potential as a diagnostic biomarker for ovarian cancer. Targeting KRT7-AS to induce ferroptosis may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for suppressing ovarian cancer progression.
