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

objectivesThis study investigates the role of Tripartite motif containing 62 (TRIM62) in osteoarthritis (OA) progression, focusing on its regulation of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) ubiquitination and chondrocyte ferroptosis.

methodsAn OA rat model was established via anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) and then primary chondrocytes were stimulated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in vitro. TRIM62 expression was manipulated using short hairpin RNA (shRNA) or overexpression plasmids. Ferroptosis was assessed by measuring GPX4, solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), glutathione (GSH), reactive oxygen species (ROS), ferrous iron (Fe

resultsRIM62 expression was significantly increased in osteoarthritic cartilage and in chondrocytes treated with IL-1β. TRIM62 knockdown restored GPX4 and collagen type II (COL II) expression, reduced disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS5) levels, suppressed ferroptosis, and alleviated cartilage damage

conclusionsTRIM62 facilitates OA progression by inducing GPX4 ubiquitination and degradation, thereby promoting chondrocyte ferroptosis. The TRIM62-GPX4-ferroptosis axis represents a promising therapeutic target for OA.
