Association between matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9 gene polymorphism with basement membrane disruption in oral lichen planus: A case-control pilot study.
Article in Journal of oral biology and craniofacial research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objectives: This study investigated genetic polymorphism of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) -2 and -9 in oral lichen planus (OLP) and their association with the basement membrane status. Study design: This case-control study involved genotyping of peripheral blood sample of 32 OLP patients and 106 ethnically matched controls. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) that were assessed in the groups were- Results: Conclusion: Biallelic substitution at the promoter region of
