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

backgroundExosomes (Exos) are candidates for functional recovery and regeneration following sciatic nerve crushed (SNC) injury due to their composition which can accelerate tissue regeneration. Therefore, mouse embryonic fibroblast-derived exosomes were evaluated for their regenerative capacity in SNC injury. METHODS AND

resultsIn the study, 40 Balb/c males (20 ± 5 g) and two pregnant mice (for embryonic fibroblast tissue) were used and crushed injury was induced in the left sciatic nerve with an aneurysm clamp. Sciatic nerve model mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 8; control, n = 8; sham, n = 8; SNC, n = 8; Mouse embryonic fibroblast exosome (mExo), n = 8; SNC + Mouse embryonic fibroblast exosome (SNC + mExo). Rotarod tests for motor functions and hot plate and von Frey tests for sensory functions were analyzed in the groups. Expression changes of exosome genes (RARRES1, NAGS, HOXA13, and MEIS1) immunohistochemical analysis of these gene proteins, and structural exosome NF-200 and S100 proteins were evaluated by confocal microscopy. Behavioral analyses showed that the damage in SNC was significant between groups on day14 and day28 (P < 0.05). In behavioral analyses, it was determined that motor functions and mechanical sensitivity lost in SNC were regained after mExo treatment. While expression of all genes was detected in MEF-derived exosomes, the high expression was MESI1 and the low expression was HOXA13. NF200, an indicator of axon number and neurofilament density, was found to decrease in SNC (P < 0.001) and increase after treatment, but not significantly. The decreased S100 protein levels in SNC and the increase detected after treatment were not significant.

conclusionThe expression of four mRNAs in mExos indicates that these genes may have an effect on regenerative processes after SNC injury. The regenerative process supported by tissue protein expressions demonstrates the therapeutic potential of mExo treatment.
