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

Exosomes derived from bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC-Exos) are one of the main factors responsible for the therapeutic effects of BMSCs. The study aimed to investigate whether BMSC-Exos could promote angiogenesis in ischemic stroke mice via miR-21-5p. In ischemic stroke mice, the therapeutic effects of BMSC-Exos were evaluated by neurological functions and infarct volume. Microvessel density was detected by BrdU/vWF immunofluorescence staining. In in vitro experiments, the proangiogenic effects of BMSC-Exos were assessed via proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The miR-21-5p inhibitor was transfected into BMSCs using Lipofectamine 2000. miR-21-5p expression was detected by qRT-PCR. The expression levels of VEGF, VEGFR2, Ang-1, and Tie-2 were determined by Western blot. BMSC-Exos significantly improved neurological functions and reduced infarct volume, upregulated microvessel density, and miR-21-5p expression after cerebral ischemia. In vitro assays revealed that BMSC-Exos enhanced HUVECs functions including proliferation, migration, and tube formation. BMSC-Exos increased the expression levels of VEGF, VEGFR2, Ang-1, and Tie-2. However, the proangiogenic effects of BMSC-Exos on HUVECs were reversed by the miR-21-5p inhibitor. These results suggest that BMSC-Exos could promote angiogenesis via miR-21-5p upregulation, making them an attractive treatment strategy for stroke recovery.
