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

Lung cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, underscoring the need for novel therapeutic strategies. In this study, three hydroxamic acids derived from L-cysteine are synthesized to explore their biological dual effect as Glyoxalase 1 (Glo-1) inhibitors and ferroptosis inducers. Among the synthesized derivates, compound 2 exhibited the highest inhibitory potency against Glo-1 and is the most potent compound against nonsmall cell lung cancer cell lines. For this compound, an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), depletion of intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) levels, and induced morphological changes is observed that correspond to ferroptosis. Furthermore, these effects are reversed by Liproxstatin-1, a potent and selective ferroptosis inhibitor. Acute and subacute toxicological assays in mice showed mild toxicity (LD
