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

Exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and heme oxygenase 1 (HO‑1) attenuate intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). However, whether BMSC‑derived exosomes attenuate IVDD by delivering HO‑1 to nucleus pulposus (NP) cells remains to be elucidated. Mouse BMSCs were characterized by multilineage differentiation and surface marker molecule detection. Exosomes Exo and Exo‑HO‑1 were isolated from BMSCs and HO‑1‑overexpressing BMSCs by ultracentrifugation and characterized by observing their morphology, detecting the exosome marker proteins, tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101) and CD63 and analyzing their particle size. Interleukin‑1 β (IL‑1β)‑stimulated NP cells were used as the IVDD cell model. The influence of Exo or Exo‑HO‑1 on IL‑1β‑urged apoptosis and senescence in NP cells was determined by flow cytometry, western blotting and senescence‑associated β‑galactosidase (SA‑β‑gal) staining. Exo and Exo‑HO‑1 did not vary in size or morphology. Exo‑HO‑1 markedly repressed IL‑1β‑prompted apoptosis in NP cells, accompanied with a prominent increase in Cleaved caspase 3 and Bax protein levels and a marked decrease in Bcl‑2 protein levels. Exo and Exo‑HO‑1 both decreased the number of SA‑β‑gal‑positive NP cells and arrested NP cells in the G
