Disturbed Matrix Metalloproteinases Activity in Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a tightly regulated family of proteolytic enzymes that break down extracellular matrix (ECM) and basement membrane components. Because it is associated with development, morphogenesis, tissue remodeling, and repair, ECM remodeling is an important mechanism. MMPs are thought to act as a double-edged sword, as they contribute to maintaining photoreceptors/retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/Bruch's membrane (BM)/choroid complex homeostasis and also contribute to the onset and progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Polymorphisms and/or altered expression in MMPs and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Here, we review the evidence for MMPs' role in the onset and progression of AMD via addressing their regulation and TIMPs' significant regulatory functions.
