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: Alzheimer's disease (AD) lacks reliable early diagnostic biomarkers and effective disease-modifying therapies. Ferroptosis has been increasingly implicated in AD pathogenesis; however, ferroptosis-related genes with diagnostic and mechanistic relevance remain insufficiently characterized. Methods: Transcriptomic datasets were obtained from the GEO database and analyzed using differential expression analysis and WGCNA, followed by integration with ferroptosis-related gene sets. Key targets were identified through PPI networks and machine learning approaches, including LASSO regression and random forest. A diagnostic model was constructed and its discriminative performance was assessed across independent datasets by cohort-specific refitting. Functional roles were explored using GSEA, and experimental validation was conducted by qPCR in Aβ-treated PC12 cells. Potential therapeutic compounds were predicted using the CMAP database. Results: A total of 52 ferroptosis-related candidate genes were identified. Among these, three genes, Conclusion: Three ferroptosis-related genes,
