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

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic, degenerative joint disease primarily characterised by damage to the articular cartilage, synovitis and persistent pain, and has become one of the most common diseases worldwide. In OA cartilage, various forms of cell death have been identified, including apoptosis, necroptosis and autophagic cell death. Ever-growing observations indicate that ferroptosis, a newly-discovered iron-dependent form of regulated cell death, is detrimental to OA occurrence and progression. In this review, we first analyse the pathogenetic mechanisms of OA by which iron overload, inflammatory response and mechanical stress contribute to ferroptosis. We then discuss how ferroptosis exacerbates OA progression, focusing on its impact on chondrocyte viability, synoviocyte populations and extracellular matrix integrity. Finally, we highlight several potential therapeutic strategies targeting ferroptosis that could be explored for the treatment of OA.
