Gelatin In Situ Zymography to Study Gelatinase Activity in Colon Cancer Cells Treated with Platelet Microparticles (PMPs).
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. 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
The platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) have been connected with tumor progression and metastatic dissemination. PMPs infiltrate solid tumors and transfer platelet-derived cargo to cancer cells. The functional roles of PMPs in cancer progression are still poorly understood. PMPs, incorporated by colorectal cancer (CRC) cells, were shown to upregulate the expression and activity of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs). To investigate the impact of PMPs on the invasive potential of CRC, we established the protocol of dequenched gelatin (DG), fluorescein conjugate assay. The procedure confirms the activity of two gelatinases, namely, MMP2 and MMP9, that digest denatured collagen (gelatin). This "step-by-step" protocol, with notes and comments implemented to human CRC lines with different phenotypes and migratory potentials, should be sufficient to obtain representative and elegant results.
