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

Malignant neoplasms arising from the central nervous system (CNS), particularly glioblastoma (GBM) as well as neuroblastoma (NB), represent a formidable global health burden owing to their aggressive biological behavior and dismal clinical outcomes. Ferroptosis-an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death distinct from apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis-has emerged as a critical regulatory nexus in the progression and therapeutic response of these malignancies. Characterized by iron-catalyzed lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis is tightly governed by the metabolic interplay among lipids, iron, and glutathione, profoundly influencing tumorigenesis, tumor progression, and therapeutic resistance. In this review, we systematically synthesize current knowledge on ferroptosis in GBM and NB, specifically contrasting how developmental origins and metabolic contexts shape their regulatory mechanisms. We further integrate recent advances in the diagnostic and therapeutic landscape of nervous system tumors, with a particular emphasis on ferroptosis-targeted strategies. Overall, this work aims to provide a conceptual framework linking ferroptosis regulation to tumor context, thereby offering mechanistic insights and future directions for the precision management of nervous system malignancies.
