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.

Abstract

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a global public health problem and is frequently comorbid with mental disorders, including anxiety and depression. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death, which is involved in the pathological process of various diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases, but the role of ferroptosis in the mediation of AUD and its induced mental disorders is unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether ferroptosis was involved in alcohol-induced depressive and anxiety-like behaviors in mice. Following an 8-week period of intermittent alcohol exposure, the alcohol group showed noticeable depressive and anxiety-like behaviors. In addition, nissl staining revealed that alcohol exposure induced neuron damage in the hippocampus (Hip) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of mice. The levels of synapse-related proteins were significantly reduced in the alcohol group. Iron staining demonstrated that alcohol increased the number of iron-positive staining cells. The protein expression of the transferrin receptor (TFRC) was increased, and the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) was decreased, respectively, in the alcohol group. Furthermore, the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 significantly prevented alcohol-induced neuron damage and enhanced the expression of
