Clinical safety and efficacy of allogenic human adipose mesenchymal stromal cells-derived exosomes in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease: a phase I/II clinical trial.
Article in General psychiatry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 110 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
Background: There have been no effective treatments for slowing or reversing Alzheimer's disease (AD) until now. Growing preclinical evidence, including this study, suggests that mesenchymal stem cells-secreted exosomes (MSCs-Exos) have the potential to cure AD. Aims: The first three-arm, drug-intervention, phase I/II clinical trial was conducted to explore the safety and efficacy of allogenic human adipose MSCs-Exos (ahaMSCs-Exos) in patients with mild to moderate AD. Methods: The eligible subjects were assigned to one of three dosage groups, intranasally administrated with ahaMSCs-Exos two times per week for 12 weeks, and underwent follow-up visits at weeks 16, 24, 36 and 48. Results: No adverse events were reported. In the medium-dose arm, Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive section (ADAS-cog) scores decreased by 2.33 (1.19) and the basic version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores increased by 2.38 (0.58) at week 12 compared with baseline levels, indicating improved cognitive function. Moreover, the ADAS-cog scores in the medium-dose arm decreased continuously by 3.98 points until week 36. There were no significant differences in altered amyloid or tau deposition among the three arms, but hippocampal volume shrank less in the medium-dose arm to some extent. Conclusions: Intranasal administration of ahaMSCs-Exos was safe and well tolerated, and a dose of at least 4×10 Trial registration number: NCT04388982.
