Oxidative Stress and Redox Imbalance: Common Mechanisms in Cancer Stem Cells and Neurodegenerative Diseases.
Review in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 71 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Oxidative stress (OS) is an established hallmark of cancer and neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs), which contributes to genomic instability and neuronal loss. This review explores the contrasting role of OS in cancer stem cells (CSCs) and NDDs. Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) contribute to genomic instability and promote tumor initiation and progression in CSCs, while in NDDs such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, OS accelerates neuronal death and impairs cellular repair mechanisms. Both scenarios involve disruption of the delicate balance between pro-oxidant and antioxidant systems, which leads to chronic oxidative stress. Notably, CSCs and neurons display alterations in redox-sensitive signaling pathways, including Nrf2 and NF-κB, which influence cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. Mitochondrial dynamics further illustrate these differences: enhanced function in CSCs supports adaptability and survival, whereas impairments in neurons heighten vulnerability. Understanding these common mechanisms of OS-induced redox imbalance may provide insights for developing interventions, addressing aging hallmarks, and potentially mitigating or preventing both cancer and NDDs.
