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-bound structures released by cells across all domains of life. Once viewed as a means for discarding unwanted cellular components, they are now understood to be central mediators of intercellular communication. Much of what is known about EVs comes from mammalian systems, where extensive work has defined the major EV subtypes and the mechanisms that generate exosomes. These findings continue to serve as the primary reference for interpreting EV biology in other organisms. EVs have been isolated from diverse arthropods, including a few insect and tick species, yet the molecular pathways that produce them remain less characterized. Current evidence from
