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

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a population of nanoscale particles surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer, enabling intercellular transfer of bioactive molecules. Once released from the parental cell, EVs can be found in most biological fluids in the human body and can be isolated from them. For this reason, EVs have significant diagnostic potential and can serve as an excellent source of circulating disease biomarkers. Protein glycosylation plays a key role in many biological processes, and aberrant glycosylation is a hallmark of various diseases. EVs have been shown to carry multiple glycoproteins, but little is known about the specific biological roles of these glycoproteins in the context of EVs. Moreover, specific changes in EV glycosylation have been described for several diseases, including cancers and metabolic, cardiovascular, neurological or kidney diseases. Urine is the richest source of EVs, providing almost unlimited (in terms of volume) opportunities for non-invasive EV isolation. Recent studies have also revealed a pathological link between urinary EV glycosylation and urological cancers, as well as other pathologies of the urinary tract. In this review, we discuss recent research advances in this field and the diagnostic/prognostic potential of urinary EV glycosylation. In addition, we summarize common methods for isolating EVs from urine and techniques used to study their glycosylation.
