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

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are being widely researched upon for several years with translational application in regenerative medicine. Many studies acknowledged trophic factors from MSCs, attenuating dreadful ailments. The beneficial properties of MSCs are attributed to their secretion of paracrine factors as extracellular vesicles/ exosomes in the tissue microenvironment. Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles involved in genetic material transportation and intercellular communication. Exosomes have been recently reported to play a role in cell-free therapy in treating many diseases like cancer and aging and are reported in regulating tumor cell fate. This review highlights the recent advances and current understanding in assessing mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes for possible cell-free therapy. The sources and composition of exosomes, drug delivery effectiveness, immunomodulatory property, therapeutic advances in cancer, and aging targeting exosomes as cargo or its effect to moderate the tissue microenvironment are also discussed. We summarize the regenerative mechanisms induced by MSCs derived exosomes.
