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

Breast cancer accounts for the highest proportion of cancer cases among women worldwide. Despite remarkable advances in cancer diagnosis and treatment, novel precision therapy strategies for various subtypes of breast cancer are urgently needed. Ferroptosis, which is different from programmed cell death, such as apoptosis, necrosis, and pyroptosis, is considered an alternative method for cancer therapy. A comprehensive understanding of ferroptosis in breast cancer is lacking, including, but not limited to, ferroptotic inducers (small molecule drugs and natural products) and the interaction between ferroptosis and immunotherapy. Induction of ferroptosis is recognized as a novel and promising strategy for cancer pharmacotherapy, and a comprehensive understanding of the role of ferroptosis in breast cancer could help provide alternative treatment strategies for breast cancer. Furthermore, we highlight the signaling crosstalk bridging ferroptosis with the immune microenvironment and the feasibility of targeting their potential regulators (
