Proteomics analysis of plasm exosomes in early pregnancy among normal pregnant women and those with antiphospholipid syndrome.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder associated with thrombosis and adverse obstetric outcomes. Early diagnosis and intervention can improve pregnancy outcomes to some extent, but current results are unsatisfactory. Exosomes, containing biomacromolecules relevant to reproduction, play essential roles in pregnancy. However, research progress on their involvement in APS remains limited. Objectives: This study aims to investigate protein profile changes in plasma exosomes and identify potential biomarkers for obstetric APS. Methods: We employed tandem mass tag (TMT) markers to analyze exosome protein profiles from 6 healthy early pregnant women and 6 early-stage APS patients. Quantitative proteomics analysis was conducted using the Maxquant search engine. Results: Differential expression analysis identified 51 upregulated and 22 downregulated proteins in plasma exosomes from early pregnant women with APS, such as serpin peptidase inhibitor C1/A1/A7, apolipoprotein 1/2, orosomucoid 1/2 and apolipoprotein H. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis shows that differentially expressed proteins are enriched in the PPAR signaling pathway and staphylococcus aureus infection pathway. Enrichment analysis indicated associations with glycerolipid biosynthesis, vitamin transport, and negative regulation of very-low-density lipoprotein particle remodeling. Conclusion: Our study highlights alterations in the protein profiles of plasma exosomes in APS pregnant patients and proposes potential biomarkers, offering insights for early diagnosis and treatment and improving reproductive outcomes.
