Industrial Scale Production and Characterization of a Whey Fraction Enriched in Extracellular Vesicle Material.
Article in Journal of extracellular biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Human milk serves the sole nutritional role for the developing infant. During lactation, nano-sized extracellular vesicles (EVs) in milk containing a multitude of biologically active components are transferred from mother to offspring. Infant formula (IF) based on cow milk-derived ingredients has been reported to contain reduced levels of EVs as compared to human milk. There is therefore an unmet need to produce large-scale volumes of milk EVs to improve IF composition. Here, we report a scalable industrial production protocol for a bovine whey-derived ingredient that is highly enriched in EV material using a large-scale sequential ceramic membrane filtration setup. Furthermore, we demonstrate a robust and generally applicable analytical approach to determine the relative contributions of EVs and milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) using molar ratios of the membrane-bound proteins butyrophilin (BTN) and CD9 as surrogate markers for MFGM and EVs, respectively. Taken together, our findings provide a basis for comparing bovine milk-containing foods and aid in developing specialized ingredients that can minimize the compositional difference between infant formula and human milk.
