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

Ferroptosis is a form of non-apoptotic cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation (LPO). Ferroptosis is closely associated with hepatic metabolic pathways, particularly those involving iron, fatty acids, amino acids, and redox changes. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current molecular pathways and regulatory mechanisms underlying iron homeostasis and intracellular compartmentation in liver biology, emphasizing the roles of ferroptosis in several liver diseases, such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, drug-induced liver injury, viral hepatitis, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, alcohol-associated liver disease, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. We have also discussed the challenges of interpreting ferroptosis-related data, proposed a framework for defining ferroptosis, and highlighted future research directions as well as the therapeutic potential of targeting ferroptosis in the treatment of various liver diseases.
