microRNAs shuttled by mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosomes in coronary artery disease: A systematic review of preclinical studies.
Review in BioImpacts : BI, 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
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a life-threatening cardiac condition with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. This systematic review article highlighted the therapeutic roles of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs)-derived exosomal microRNAs (exo-miRs) in preclinical models of CAD. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar to identify relevant publications until 04 Apr 2025. The literature review focuses on the origin of MSCs, the technique employed for exosome extraction and identification, the route and frequency of exosomal administration, the mechanisms through which exo-miRs regulate paracrine activity, and their impact on cardiac outcome. Results: After meticulous evaluation, fifty-six studies were deemed eligible for inclusion in this systematic review. Bone marrow-derived MSCs were the most commonly utilized cell type in the preclinical studies. The majority of studies employed the ultracentrifugation method for exosome isolation from MSCs. The administration of exosomes was primarily achieved through a single intramyocardial injection, utilizing a wide range of exosome concentrations (ranging from 0.02-400 μg/μL). Conclusion: The included studies predominantly have reported the anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, angiogenic, antifibrotic, and reparative effects of MSC-exo-miRs, especially under hypoxic conditions. These findings support the capacity of MSC-exo-miRs to regulate the immune system and facilitate cardiac recovery following an injury.
