A novel extracellular vesicle paradigm for the treatment of COVID-19 induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2024. 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
Efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) suggests bioactive bone marrow MSC extracellular vesicles (BM-MSC EVs) may be effective. A patient with severe COVID-19 associated ARDS who was presumed to expire was treated with a BM-MSC EV preparation (14 doses over two months) as a rescue treatment for refractory COVID ARDS. Near complete reversal of lung inflammation and fibrosis (per computed tomography), near complete restoration of mobility, hospital discharge (3 months) with resumption of normal activities of daily living (one year) and return to work occurred. No adverse events occurred despite repeated dosing of investigational product, highlighting safety of this potential therapy for ARDS.
