Harnessing ferroptosis for cancer therapy: Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies (Review).
Review in Oncology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death characterized by accumulation of free iron, reactive oxygen species generation and lipid peroxidation and is distinct from other types of regulated cell deaths such as apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy. Ferroptosis is distinct from other programmed cell deaths for its iron dependence and its significant role in tumor suppression. Therefore, harnessing ferroptosis may offer promising avenues for cancer therapy. In the present review, the different pathways that lead to ferroptosis, the genes and transcription factors involved in both iron and lipid metabolism, as well as the impact of small‑molecule alterations on the regulation of ferroptotic cell death, were discussed. Furthermore, the emergence of combination therapies with ferroptosis‑inducing molecules that overcome resistance to conventional chemotherapy, particularly in solid tumors, were highlighted.
