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

In recent years, the study of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the context of various diseases has dramatically increased due to their diagnostic and therapeutic potential. Typically, EVs are isolated in vitro from the cell culture of primary cells or cell lines or from bodily fluids. However, these cell culture methods do not represent the whole complexity of an in vivo microenvironment, and bodily fluids contain a high heterogeneous population of vesicles since they originate from different tissues. This highlights the need to develop new methods to isolate EVs directly from tissue samples. In the present study, we established a protocol for isolating EVs from hepatic and adipose tissue of mice, using a combination of ultracentrifugation and iodixanol-sucrose density gradient separation. EV isolation was confirmed with EV protein marker enrichment in Western blot assays, total protein quantification, and transmission electron microscopy. Regarding the liver tissue, we additionally implemented size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to further increase the purity grade of the EVs. The successful isolation of EVs from tissue samples will allow us to uncover a more precise molecular composition and functions, as well as their role in intercellular communication in an in vivo microenvironment.
