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) have shown great potential for treating various diseases. Translating EVs-based therapy from bench to bedside remains challenging due to inefficient delivery of EVs to the injured area and lack of techniques to visualize the entire targeting process. Here we developed a dopamine surface functionalization platform that facilitates easy and simultaneous conjugation of targeting peptide and multi-mode imaging probes to the surface of EVs. Utilizing this platform we concurrently modified M2 microglia-derived EVs (M2-EVs) with neuronal targeting peptide rabies virus glycoprotein peptide 29 (RVG29) and multi-modal imaging tracers, resulting in the targeted delivery of M2-EVs to stroke mice brain and enabled the dynamic visualization of the targeting process from whole-body to cellular levels. We determined that intra-arterial injection achieved the highest efficiency of targeted delivery of engineered EVs to the stroke mice brain, improved therapeutic efficacy by reducing neuronal apoptosis. Mechanistically, EVs miRNA array revealed that a number of anti-apoptosis related miRNAs were significantly up-regulated, including miR-221-3p and miR-423-3p, both exerted anti-apoptotic effects through p38/ERK signalling pathways in stroke. Overall, this platform provides a facile and powerful tool for multifunctional engineering of EVs for multiscale therapeutic evaluation and enhancement of EV-based therapy, with valuable prospects for clinical translation.
