Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell-Derived Exosomal MicroRNAs Regulate Endothelial Cell Migration Under PDGF Stimulation.
Article in Cells, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Intercellular communication between vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) is essential for the maintenance of vascular homeostasis. The presence of exosomes, a recently discovered player in vascular cell communication, has been associated with vascular disease progression. However, the detailed mechanism of how the signal mediated by exosomes affects the function of vascular cells during vascular pathogenesis is yet to be further understood. In this study, we investigated the expression of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) secreted by VSMCs and their functional relevance to ECs in pathogenesis, including their role in processes such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulation. We observed that PDGF stimulation contributes to a change in exosomal miRNA release from VSMCs; specifically, miR-1246, miR-182, and miR-486 were deficient in exosomes derived from PDGF-stimulated VSMCs. The reduced miRNA expression in these exosomes is associated with an increase in EC migration. These findings increase our understanding of exosome-mediated crosstalk between vascular cells under a pathological condition.
