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
Prolonged three-dimensional culture exposes stem cells to sustain microenvironmental and mechanical stresses that can promote aging- and senescence-associated phenotypic alterations. This study examined how long-term expansion of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in a hollow fiber bioreactor (HFB) influences cellular senescence and the molecular composition of secreted small extracellular vesicles (sEVs). During extended HFB culture, BMSCs exhibited progressive morphological flattening and cytoskeletal disorganization, accompanied by increased senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity and immunophenotypic remodeling characterized by reduced fluorescence intensity and spatial redistribution of canonical MSC markers, consistent with a stress-adapted, early senescence-associated cellular state. In parallel, sEVs were collected longitudinally over 40 days and characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis, immunoblotting, and quantitative proteomics. While vesicle size, marker expression, and yield remained stable throughout culture, proteomic profiling revealed pronounced, phase-dependent remodeling of sEV cargo, including coordinated alterations in oxidative stress-related processes, lysosomal and extracellular matrix-associated pathways, and relative depletion of cytoskeletal and translational components. Notably, these vesicular signatures closely mirrored senescence-associated changes observed at the cellular level. The strong correspondence between cellular phenotypes and sEV proteomic profiles establishes vesicle analysis as a convergent and noninvasive readout of BMSC aging, enabling sensitive monitoring of senescence progression while reducing reliance on parallel, labor-intensive cellular assays. Collectively, these findings indicate that prolonged HFB culture promotes a controlled, stress-associated senescence program in BMSCs and position sEV proteomic profiling as a robust approach for assessing stem cell aging dynamics during long-term three-dimensional bioreactor culture.
