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 advent of molecular classification has ushered breast cancer treatment into the era of precision medicine. Nevertheless, clinical management continues to face significant challenges posed by drug resistance and tumor heterogeneity. Recent advances have identified novel programmed cell death (PCD) mechanisms-including ferroptosis, cuproptosis, disulfidptosis, and pyroptosis-as critical regulators of breast cancer progression, therapeutic responsiveness, and immune microenvironment remodeling. This review systematically elucidates the mechanistic foundations of these PCD pathways and investigates their molecular regulatory networks within breast cancer pathogenesis. Furthermore, we evaluate current targeted intervention strategies and assess their clinical translation potential, ultimately providing a theoretical framework for pioneering therapeutic approaches.
