1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Human giant cell tumor (GCT) consists of multinucleated giant cells and mononuclear stromal cells, and is characterized by frequent vascular invasion without distant metastases. To study the role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the vascular invasion, we examined production of MMP-1 (tissue collagenase), -2 (gelatinase A), -3 (stromelysin-1), -9 (gelatinase B), and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1 and -2) in GCT. MMP-9 was highly and predominantly expressed in giant cells by both immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. Expression of other MMPs was also observed in some cases but was inconstant. Sandwich enzyme immunoassays demonstrated that MMP-9 is the predominant MMP secreted by GCT. There was a definite imbalance between the amounts of MMP-9 and those of TIMPs in the culture media of GCT, leading to detectable gelatinolytic activity in an assay using 14C-gelatin. Gelatin zymography demonstrated the main activity at about 90 kd, which was identified as the zymogen of MMP-9 by immunoblotting. Immunohistochemistry for type IV collagen and laminin, major basement membrane components, showed that disappearance of the proteins is closely associated with MMP-9-positive giant cells. These results indicate the production of MMP-9 by multinucleated giant cells and suggest that the metalloproteinase may contribute to proteolysis associated with vascular invasion and local bone resorption in human GCT.
