Plasma Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 as a Prognostic Biomarker in Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

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
Purpose: Plasma matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is a collagenase encoded by the MMP-1 gene. However, the prognostic value of plasma MMP-1 levels in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has yet to be elucidated. The study is the first to use a cohort of OSCC patients to assess the association of plasma MMP-1 levels with clinicopathological factors/survival outcomes in OSCC patients. Patients and Methods: A total of 677 patients were retrospectively enrolled, including 276 oral potentially malignant disease (OPMD) and 401 OSCC patients from 2013 to 2021. Pretreatment plasma MMP-1 levels were measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the values were compared between OPMD and OSCC patients. Furthermore, the association of plasma MMP-1 levels and clinicopathological characteristics/survival outcomes in OSCC patients was investigated. Results: Plasma MMP-1 levels were significantly higher in OSCC patients than in OPMD patients ( Conclusion: Plasma MMP-1 levels are associated with more severe clinicopathological manifestations and can also be regarded as a significant prognostic factor for OSCC posttreatment outcomes.
