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

aims/hypothesisMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to abrogate in vitro the proinflammatory response in type 1 diabetes. The mechanism involves paracrine factors, which may include microvesicles (MVs). We evaluated whether MVs derived from heterologous bone-marrow MSCs exert an immunomodulatory effect on T cell responses against GAD (glutamic acid decarboxylase) antigen in type 1 diabetes.

methodsMVs were purified from heterologous human MSCs by differential centrifugation. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from patients with type 1 diabetes at disease onset, and responses to GAD65 stimulation were assessed by IFN-γ enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot analysis. Levels of cytokines and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were measured in the supernatant fraction, and T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T cell analysis was performed.

resultsMVs were internalised by PBMCs, as assessed by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry analyses. MVs significantly decreased IFN-γ spots and levels in GAD65-stimulated PBMCs, and significantly increased transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), IL-10, IL-6 and PGE2 levels. Furthermore, MVs decreased the number of Th17 cells and the levels of IL-17, and increased FoxP3(+) regulatory T cells in GAD65-stimulated PBMCs. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationThese results provide evidence that MSC-derived MVs can inhibit in vitro a proinflammatory response to an islet antigenic stimulus in type 1 diabetes. The action of MVs involves PGE2 and TGF-β signalling pathways and IL-10 secretion, suggesting a switch to an anti-inflammatory response of T cells.
