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

introductionSublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) is an effective and injection-free route for allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT). Mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes (Exo) has been identified as a novel delivery platform with immunomodulatory capacities. In addition, targeting agents such as aptamers (Apt) have been extensively used for specific delivery approaches such as direct delivery of allergen formulations to dendritic cells (DC) to improve the efficacy of specific immunotherapy. In this study, we assessed the effects of MSC-derived Exos containing ovalbumin (Ova) which decorated with DC-specific aptamer in allergic rhinitis mice model. MATERIALS AND

methodsExos were harvested from adipose tissue-derived MSCs, and Exo-Apt-Ova complex was formulated. Then, Ova-induced allergic asthma model was simulated and sensitized BALB/c mice were treated sublingually with Exo-Apt-Ova complex (5 µg Ova) twice weekly for 8 weeks. Ova-specific IgE levels in serum and concentrations of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-4, and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) in the supernatant of cultured splenocytes were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, lung histologic analysis and nasopharyngeal lavage fluid (NALF) cell count were performed.

resultsAdministration of Ova-incorporated Apt-modified Exos dramatically increased IFN-γ and TGF-β levels, and decreased IL-4 and IgE levels. In addition, inflammatory responses in the lung tissue and the number of eosinophils in NALF decreased.

conclusionSLIT using Exo-Ova (5 µg) decorated with DC-specific aptamer induced immunomodulatory responses and remarkably attenuated allergic airway inflammation in mice.
