Liver-derived Exosomal miRNA in NAFLD: Mechanisms of Action, Biomarkers, and Therapeutic Applications.
Review in Current medicinal chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is of global concern due to its high prevalence worldwide. NAFLD, as one of the most common causes of liver function abnormalities, is associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and there are no medications available to treat NAFLD. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized, membrane-bound vesicles that deliver biomolecules between cells. Exosomes are a subtype of EVs that mediate intercellular communication by delivering proteins and RNAs. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a highly conserved class of small tissue-specific non-coding RNAs that influence the expression of many functionally interacting genes. Hepatic-derived exosomal miRNAs are tightly associated with NAFLD occurrence and progression through multiple mechanisms. In addition, the characterization of miRNAs suggests that they may serve as multifunctional biomarkers for NAFLD, be used as clinical therapeutic targets for NAFLD, and be significant predictors of patient prognosis. Here, we review recent advances in the regulation and function of exosome- derived miRNAs in NAFLD, focusing on miRNAs specifically expressed or enriched in hepatocytes (HCs), hepatic macrophages, hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), and other immune cells in the liver. Finally, we discuss future research directions on exosomal miRNAs as biomarkers for NAFLD's diagnosis and clinical therapeutic targets.
