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

We have localized a second gene for membrane-type matrix metalloproteinases, MT2-MMP, to chromosome 16q12 by in situ hybridization. FISH experiments using a genomic PAC clone containing the MT2-MMP gene resulted in an unusual hybridization pattern detecting centromeric and non-centromeric heterochromatin regions or its flanking sequences in 11 human chromosomes in addition to the MT2-MMP locus on chromosome 16q12. The detailed analysis of this hybridization pattern using molecular cytogenetic methods together with the specific hybridization of the MT2-MMP cDNA allowed a refined mapping of the gene to 16q12.1, directly adjacent to the 16q heterochromatin. Our findings may give some insights into the evolution of the MMP gene family.
