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

Functional neurological recovery after ischemic stroke remains a formidable challenge in neuroscience. Exosomes serve as pivotal mediators of intercellular communication, and the microRNAs (miRNAs) they carry, in particular, offer a promising "cell-free therapy" strategy for promoting neurological repair. This review systematically summarizes the multi-target mechanisms by which exosomal miRNAs regulate the neurovascular unit (NVU) and outlines technical strategies to enhance exosomal therapeutic efficacy through targeted modification and engineered cargo loading, with the aim of constructing a smart drug delivery system capable of precise navigation. Following the trajectory of "natural exosomes-engineered exosomes-clinical translation", this review addresses the core scientific question of how to transform exosomal miRNAs from natural messenger molecules with basic reparative activity into an intelligent therapeutic system for precise targeted delivery. It further explores precision exosome treatment models based on the pathological staging of stroke progression, and integrates single-cell, spatial transcriptomic, and multi-omics technologies to decode the "miRNA-cell source-target cell-signaling pathway" regulatory axis, thereby identifying candidate miRNA combinations with translational potential. Finally, this review provides an in-depth analysis of the core challenges in translating such nanotherapeutic strategies from the bench to the bedside, including manufacturing standardization, quality control, and potency assessment, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for advancing exosomal miRNA therapies from mechanistic studies to precision stroke treatment.
