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: Paeoniflorin is an active component of a widely used traditional Chinese medicine with antitumor activity through ferroptosis induction. It has been reported recently that ferroptosis is emerging in certain types of cancer; however, its relevance in glioma is still not well studied. Methods: CCK8 assay was performed for cell proliferation. Expression of mRNA and protein was tested by qPCR and western blot, respectively. Clinical section samples were detected by IHC. The relationship between NEDD4L and STAT3 was validated by a coimmunoprecipitation assay. Apoptosis was identified by TUNEL assay. A xenograft mouse model was utilized to validate the potential of paeoniflorin toward glioma cancer cells. Results: The data suggested that paeoniflorin could increase NEDD4L expression in glioma cells. The NEDD4L expression level was lower in glioma cancer tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, and it correlates with poor prognosis. Meanwhile, NEDD4L mediates the ubiquitination of STAT3. Furthermore, increased NEDD4L significantly inhibited cell viability and induced accumulation of intracellular ROS levels, accompanied by decreased expression of key ferroptosis factors Nrl2 and GPX4, while NEDD4L knockdown had a reverse effect, suggesting that ferroptosis could be involved. NEDD4L-induced ferroptosis could be rescued by forced expression of STAT3. A xenograft nude mouse model showed that paeoniflorin inhibits tumor growth and further sensitizes glioma cells to RSL3, another well-known ferroptosis inducer. Conclusions: In summary, this study demonstrated that paeoniflorin might function as an effective drug for glioma by inducing ferroptosis via upregulation of NEDD4L and repression of Nrl2, GPX4, and STAT3.
