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

Extracellular vesicles are heterogeneous structures surrounded by cell membranes and carry complex contents including nucleotides, proteins, and lipids. These proteins include cytokines and chemokines that are important for exaggerating local and systemic inflammation in disease. Extracellular vesicles are mainly categorized as exosomes and micro-vesicles, which are directly shed from the endosomal system or originated from the cell membrane, respectively. By transporting several bioactive molecules to recipient cells and tissues, extracellular vesicles have favorable, neutral, or detrimental impacts on their targets, such as switching cell phenotype, modulating gene expression, and controlling biological pathways such as inflammatory cell recruitment, activation of myeloid cells and cell proliferation. Extracellular vesicles mediate these functions via both autocrine and paracrine signaling. In the cardiovascular system, extracellular vesicles can be secreted by multiple cell types like cardiomyocytes, smooth muscle cells, macrophages, monocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, and affect functions of cells or tissues in distant organs. These effects involve maintaining homeostasis, regulating inflammation, and triggering pathological process in cardiovascular disease. In this review, we mainly focus on the role of micro-vesicles and exosomes, two important subtypes of extracellular vesicles, in local and systemic inflammation in cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis and heart failure. We summarize recent findings and knowledge on the effect of extracellular vesicles in controlling both humoral and cellular immunity, and the therapeutic approaches to harness this knowledge to control exacerbated inflammation in cardiovascular diseases.
