β1-Integrin-Mediated Uptake of Chondrocyte Extracellular Vesicles Regulates Chondrocyte Homeostasis.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent age-related degenerative disorder, which severely reduces the quality of life of those affected. Whilst management strategies exist, no cures are currently available. Virtually all joint resident cells generate extracellular vesicles (EVs), and alterations in chondrocyte EVs during OA have previously been reported. Herein, we investigated factors influencing chondrocyte EV release and the functional role that these EVs exhibit. Both 2D and 3D models of culturing C28I/2 chondrocytes were used for generating chondrocyte EVs. We assessed the effect of these EVs on chondrogenic gene expression as well as their uptake by chondrocytes. Collectively, the data demonstrated that chondrocyte EVs are sequestered within the cartilage ECM and that a bi-directional relationship exists between chondrocyte EV release and changes in chondrogenic differentiation. Finally, we demonstrated that the uptake of chondrocyte EVs is at least partially dependent on β1-integrin. These results indicate that chondrocyte EVs have an autocrine homeostatic role that maintains chondrocyte phenotype. How this role is perturbed under OA conditions remains the subject of future work.
