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

The role and underlying mechanisms of placental ferroptosis in fetal growth restriction (FGR) induced by environmental stress remain poorly understood. Our population-based study showed elevated ferroptosis levels in all-cause FGR placentae. Environmental stressor cadmium (Cd) was used to generate an FGR mouse model, which exhibited elevated placental ferroptosis. Ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 reversed environmental Cd-induced FGR. Targeted oxidized lipidomics identified the peroxisome as a target organelle for prenatal Cd-induced placental ferroptosis. Furthermore, Cd induced excessive activation of PEX5-dependent pexophagy in placentae. By establishing a placental Pex5-knockdown mouse, pexophagy was confirmed to drive environmental Cd-induced placental ferroptosis. Mechanistically, pexophagy drives the degradation of the H
