A comprehensive review on recent advances in exosome isolation and characterization: Toward clinical applications.
Review in Translational oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 156 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 are small, round vesicles in the 30 and 120 nm diameter range released by all living cell types. Exosomes play many essential functions in intercellular communication and tissue crosstalk in the human body. They can potentially be used as strong biomarkers and therapeutic agents for early diagnosis, therapy response, and prognosis of different diseases. The main requirements for exosomal large-scale clinical practice application are rapid, easy, high-yield, high purity, characterization, safety, low cost, and therapeutic efficacy. Depending on the sample types, environmental insults, and exosome quantity, exosomes can be isolated from various sources, including body fluids, solid tissues, and cell culture medium using different procedures. This study comprehensively analyzed the current research progress in exosome isolation and characterization strategies along with their advantages and disadvantages. The provided information will make it easier to select exosome separation methods based on the types of biological samples available, and it will facilitate the use of exosomes in translational and clinical research, particularly in cancer. Lay abstract Exosomes have recently received much attention due to their potential to function as biomarkers and novel therapeutic agents for early diagnosis, therapeutic response, and prognosis in various diseases. This review summarizes many approaches for isolating and characterizing exosomes, focusing on developing technologies, and provides an in-depth comparison and analysis of each method, including its principles, advantages, and limitations.
