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

As a type of nanosized membranous vesicles secreted by living cells, extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate intercellular communications with excellent physicochemical stability and biocompatibility. By delivering biologically active molecules including proteins, nucleic acids and lipids, EVs participate in many physiological and pathological processes. Increasing studies have suggested that EVs may be biomarkers for liquid biopsy of retinal diseases due to the ability to transfer through the blood-retinal barrier. EVs also represent a novel cell-free strategy to repair tissue damage in regenerative medicine. Evidence has indicated that EVs can be engineered and modified to enhance their efficacy. In this review, an overview of the characteristics, isolation, and identification of EVs is provided. Moreover, recent advances with EVs in the diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases and the engineering approaches to elevate their effects are introduced, and opportunities and challenges for clinical application are discussed.
