Comparison of an Optimized Ultracentrifugation Method versus Size-Exclusion Chromatography for Isolation of Exosomes from Human Serum.
Article in Journal of proteome research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04121065 (Interventional Not Pharmacological Study to Investigate the Role of ADA in Multiple Sclerosis PatientsTreated With an Immune-Reconstitution Therapy), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Exosomes are nanosized vesicles that are abundant in biological fluids. In recent years, exosomes have attracted increasing attention as their cargo may provide promising biomarkers for the early diagnosis of and therapy for many diseases, such as cancer. In addition to ultracentrifugation (UC), many alternative methods including size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) have been developed for isolating exosomes. It has been reported that the SEC method provided improved performance relative to the UC method in isolating exosomes from plasma, where the former contained less residual blood protein contamination. We have compared the SEC method with an optimized UC method in isolating exosomes from human serum. This was based on dilution of the serum to reduce the viscosity and a prolonged cycle of UC, followed by another four cycles. We found that >95% of serum proteins were removed without a significant loss of exosome proteins relative to SEC. We also combined one cycle of UC with SEC and found that this method provided improved results relative to the SEC method, although the serum protein contamination was several times higher than that of our optimized UC method. The TEM showed that the size distribution of exosomes isolated from each of the three methods was similar.
