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

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) mediate the interaction between tumor and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). This study aims to demonstrate that the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)-derived sEV Ezrin (sEV-EZR) could modulate macrophage polarization and promote PDAC metastasis. We isolated PDAC-derived sEVs and plasma sEVs from PDAC patients. Human blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived macrophages were treated with PDAC-derived sEVs or the counterpart depleted Ezrin (EZR) with shRNA-mediated knockdown. We used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and flow cytometry to monitor macrophages polarization. NOD/SCID/IL2Rγ
