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

Exosomes or small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are present in the blood of pregnant mice and considered to be involved in pregnancy physiology. Although sEVs in pregnant periods are proposed to be derived from placentas, sEVs-producing cells are not well known in mouse placentas. We studied the dynamics and localization of sEVs in pregnant serum and placentas, and examined gestational variation of microRNA (miRNA). Serums and placentas were collected from non-pregnant (NP) and pregnant mice throughout the entire gestational day (Gd). EVs were purified from serums and total RNA was isolated from EVs. Nanoparticle-tracking assay (NTA) revealed that the rates of sEVs in EVs are 53% at NP, and increased to 80.1% at Gd 14.5 and 97.5% at Gd 18.5. Western blotting on EVs showed positive reactivity to the tetraspanin markers and clarified that the results using anti-CD63 antibody were most consistent with the sEVs appearance detected by NTA. Serum EVs also showed a positive reaction to the syncytiotrophoblast marker, syncytin-1. Immunohistostaining using anti-CD63 antibody showed positive reactions in mouse placentas at the syncytiotrophoblasts and endothelial cells of the fetal capillaries. Quantitative PCR revealed that significantly higher amounts of miRNAs were included in the sEVs of Gd 18.5. Our results suggested that sEVs are produced in the mouse placenta and transferred to maternal or fetal bloodstreams. sEVs are expected to have a miRNA-mediated physiological effect and become useful biomarkers reflecting the pregnancy status.
