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

In spite of the numerous clinical trials conducted on mesenchymal stromal cells and their extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) across a wide range of diseases, the field faces challenges in reaching a consensus on crucial parameters such as source, marker definition, and culture conditions, adding to heterogeneous efficiencies. Nevertheless, there is widespread acceptance of the pro-inflammatory activation of MSCs with IFN-γ and TNF-α to enhance immune modulation. Our study highlights the impact of activation duration on MSC-EV-mediated immune modulation of macrophages. Extended activation periods (24 h) revealed elevated levels of IFN-γ-induced CD317 on the MSC surface. CD317 is known to tether enveloped viral particles to the cell membrane, impeding viral diffusion and spread. We demonstrated the accumulation of EVs on the MSC cell surface following activation or lentiviral CD317 overexpression. In contrast, CD317 knockdown eliminated the enrichment of EVs on the cell surface, significantly enhancing the MSC-EV-mediated immune modulation of macrophages. Considering the pivotal role of IFN-γ in MSC immune modulation and its inevitable contact in patients, our findings propose CD317 as a potential modulator of MSC-based therapy efficacy in clinical applications.
