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

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a pivotal ligand‑activated transcription factor that plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular redox homeostasis. The disruption of redox homeostasis in the etiology of numerous diseases primarily manifests as the accumulation of reactive species and the attenuation of the antioxidant defenses, leading to the progressive buildup of lipid peroxides. This phenomenon significantly contributes to the initiation and progression of diseases, such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes and ischemia‑reperfusion injury. Ferroptosis is a form of cell death characterized by iron dependency and lipid peroxidation. The regulation of ferroptosis presents a promising therapeutic target for anticancer therapy and the prevention of neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. AhR transcriptionally regulates downstream target genes, thereby modulating the biosynthesis and accumulation of bioactive compounds and the antioxidant defense mechanism. This process is intricately linked to lipid peroxide accumulation and subsequent ferroptosis. The present review provides an overview of the influence of AhR on lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, the potential therapeutic targets, and the prospective application value of targeting the AhR to influence lipid peroxidation‑ferroptosis processes in tumor cells and ischemia‑reperfusion injury.
