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

backgroundRecently, the beneficial effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cell (hucMSC)-derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) in mitigating skin aging through multiple mechanisms have been widely reported. β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is an iconic anti-aging drug that increases NAD

methodsD-galactose was applied to construct a mouse skin aging model, based on which comparative analyses of topical and nano-microneedle administration were performed to determine the optimal delivery method of sEVs in vivo experiments. After constructing NMN-sEVs by electroporation, high-performance liquid chromatography was applied to detect the loading efficiency, and the effects of NMN-sEVs on delaying skin aging were assessed by histological analysis. In addition, the defense effects of NMN-sEVs against cellular senescence were verified by reactive oxygen species assay, β-galactosidase staining, qRT-PCR, Western blot, and cellular immunofluorescence. Finally, the roles of NMN-sEVs in remodeling mitochondrial function and delaying cellular senescence through mitochondrial autophagy were assessed by mitochondrial mass, function, and autophagy level assays.

resultsOur data suggested that NMN-sEVs could improve skin aging in mice, delay cellular senescence, and restore cellular mitochondrial dysfunction. Notably, NMN-sEVs treatment increased intracellular NAD

conclusionOverall, our findings revealed a mechanism by which NMN-sEVs attenuated mitochondrial dysfunction and rescued cellular senescence by promoting NAD
