Efficacy of extracellular vesicles of different cell origins in traumatic brain injury: A systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: There was still no effective treatment for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Recently, many preclinical studies had shown promising efficacy of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from various cell sources. Our aim was to compare which cell-derived EVs were most effective in treating TBI through a network meta-analysis. Methods: We searched four databases and screened various cell-derived EVs for use in preclinical studies of TBI treatment. A systematic review and network meta-analysis were conducted for two outcome indicators, modified Neurological Severity Score (mNSS) and Morris Water Maze (MWM), and they were ranked by the surface under the cumulative ranking curves (SUCRA). Bias risk assessment was performed with SYRCLE. R software (version 4.1.3, Boston, MA, USA) was used for data analysis. Results: A total of 20 studies were included in this study, involving 383 animals. Astrocyte-derived extracellular vesicles (AEVs) ranked first in response to mNSS at day 1 (SUCRA: 0.26%), day 3 (SUCRA: 16.32%), and day 7 (SUCRA: 9.64%) post-TBI. Extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCEVs) were most effective in mNSS assessment on day 14 (SUCRA: 21.94%) and day 28 (SUCRA: 6.26%), as well as MWM's escape latency (SUCRA: 6.16%) and time spent in the target quadrant (SUCRA: 86.52%). The result of mNSS analysis on day 21 showed that neural stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (NSCEVs) had the best curative effect (SUCRA: 6.76%). Conclusion: AEVs may be the best choice to improve early mNSS recovery after TBI. The efficacy of MSCEVs may be the best in the late mNSS and MWM after TBI.
