Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles as a Potential Therapeutic Tool for Eye Diseases: From Benchtop to Bedside.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (SC-EVs) have remarkably drawn clinicians' attention in treating ocular diseases. As a paracrine factor of stem cells and an appealing alternative for off-the-shelf cell-free therapeutics, SC-EVs can be conveniently applied topically on the ocular surface or introduced to the retina via intravitreal injection, without increasing the risks of immunogenesis or oncogenesis. This chapter aims to assess the potential applications for EV, obtained from various types of stem cells, in myriad eye diseases (traumatic, inflammatory, degenerative, immunological, etc.). To the best of our knowledge, all relevant pre-clinical studies are summarized here. Furthermore, we highlight the up-to-date status of clinical trials in the same realm and emphasize where future research efforts should be directed. For a successful clinical translation, various drawbacks of EVs therapy should be overcome (e.g., contamination, infection, insufficient yield, etc.). Moreover, standardized, and scalable extraction, purification, and characterization protocols are highly suggested to determine the exosome quality before they are offered to patients with ocular disorders.
