BMP-4 Extraction from Extracellular Matrix and Analysis of Heparin-Binding Properties.
Article in Molecular biotechnology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Recombinant human BMP-4 growth factor (GF) has significant commercial potential as therapeutic for regenerating bone and as cell culture supplement. However, its commercial utility has been limited as large-scale attempts to express and purify human BMP-4 GF have proved challenging. We have established a novel approach to obtain significant quantities of pure and bioactive BMP-4 GF from Chinese hamster ovary cell cultures by extracting the GF moiety from the extracellular matrix or cell pellet fraction. This approach increased yields approximately one 100-fold over BMP-4 GF purified from CM. The molecular activities of the two fractions are indistinguishable. We further analyzed binding of BMP-4 GF to the proteoglycan Heparin and showed that an N-terminal basic sequence is essential for this interaction. Taken together, these results provide novel insights into the purification, localization, and Heparin binding of human BMP-4 that have implications for its bioprocessing and biological function.
