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

The field of extracellular vesicles (EVs) is advancing rapidly, and this review aims to synthesize the latest research connected to EVs and the gastrointestinal tract. We will address new and emerging roles for EVs derived from internal sources such as the pancreas and immune system and how these miniature messengers alter organismal health or the inflammatory response within the GI tract. We will examine what is known about external EVs from dietary and bacterial sources and the immense anti-inflammatory, immune-modulatory, and proliferative potential within these nano-sized information carriers. EV interactions with the intestinal and colonic epithelium and associated immune cells at homeostatic and disease states, such as necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) will also be covered. We will discuss how EVs are being leveraged as therapeutics or for drug delivery and conclude with a series of unanswered questions in the field.
