Following a sensitivity analysis, we observed certain biases in the study conducted by Song et al. Upon a thorough review of the research, we discovered that this study found ZFP36 can express in both tumor and para-carcinoma tissues, and the expression of ZFP36 was higher in para-carcinoma tissues Elevated ZFP36 expression inhibits ferroptosis, consequently leading to fewer instances of ferroptosis in the tumor-adjacent tissue, resulting in better patient prognoses. Here, ZFP36 is linked to neoplasm.
