Matrix Metalloproteinases and Heart Transplantation-A Pathophysiological and Clinical View.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2023. 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
Heart transplantation is undergoing a continuous development, with rates of success increasing substantially due to advances in immunosuppressive therapy and surgical techniques. The most worrying complication occurring after cardiac transplantation is graft rejection, a phenomenon that is much affected by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), with the role of these proteases in the cardiac remodeling process being well established in the literature. A detailed investigation of the association between MMPs and cardiac rejection is necessary for the future development of more targeted therapies in transplanted patients, and to discover prognostic serum and immunohistochemical markers that will lead to more organized therapeutic management in these patients. The aim of this review is therefore to highlight the main MMPs relevant to cardiovascular pathology, with particular emphasis on those involved in complications related to heart transplantation, including cardiac graft rejection.
