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

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale, lipid bilayer-enclosed particles containing bioactive molecules that play crucial roles in tissue homeostasis. These vesicles regulate cellular functions via delivery of protein, lipid, and nucleic acid cargos to target cells, thereby orchestrating essential biological processes, including cellular proliferation, activation, angiogenesis, and immune responses. The past decade has witnessed unprecedented growth in research examining EV functions in cutaneous physiology and pathogenesis. Here, we describe the biogenesis, composition and cellular uptake of EVs, critically highlighting the therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of EVs from mammalian, plant and bacterial cells in skin diseases, including skin wound healing, hair growth, aging, inflammatory diseases and cancers. In addition, we discuss clinical translation challenges and outline future research directions for advancing EV-based therapeutics in clinical dermatology.
