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

Objective: In this study, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) were stimulated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) to obtain preconditioned exosomes (Exos). Comparative miRNA profiling was performed between cytokine-primed Exos and conventionally cultured counterparts to identify differentially expressed miRNAs. Functional validation of candidate miRNAs will elucidate their mechanistic roles in promoting cutaneous repair, thereby advancing the clinical translation of Exos-based regenerative therapies. Methods: We successfully extracted and characterized hUC-MSCs derived Exos (hUCMSCs-Exos) and classified them into Exos obtained under normal culture conditions (Con-Exos) and those stimulated by TNF-α+IL-1β obtained Exos (TNF-α+IL-1β-Exos). The wound healing rate was observed and counted by establishing a mouse whole skin defect wound model Results: TNF-α+IL-1β-Exos accelerated wound healing more than Con-Exos, mainly by increasing collagen deposition and expression of the angiogenic marker CD31. Sequencing and bioinformatics analyses revealed that the key miRNA for both co-actions was miR-215-5p. Cellular experiments showed that miR-215-5p mimics promoted HUVECs tubulogenesis and proliferation, whereas the inhibitor effect was not significant. In animal experiments, miR-215-5p mimics also significantly accelerated wound healing in mice. Conclusion: TNF-α+IL-1β-Exos demonstrated superior wound healing efficacy compared to Con-Exos. This enhanced therapeutic effect may be attributed to the elevated expression of miR-215-5p in TNF-α+IL-1β-Exos. Mechanistically, miR-215-5p activates the
