Association of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) gene polymorphisms with periodontitis: a systematic review.
Review in GMS hygiene and infection control, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 proteinases released by gingival cells, macrophages and neutrophils, induced by potentially pathogenic periodontal bacteria of the subgingival plaque, which play a critical role in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. The expression of MMPs is controlled by chromosome 11. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are linked with variations in the secretion of MMPs, resulting in periodontal disease progression. Genetic studies aim to find the markers for early diagnosis and prevention of the related diseases. This systematic review focuses on finding the association between the MMPs and periodontitis among Indians. A literature review was performed, including studies published between January 1
