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

backgroundExosomes derived from stem cells have been demonstrated to be good candidates for the treatment of osteochondral injury. Our previous studies have demonstrated that mechanical stimulation could be crucial for the secretion of exosomes derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (U-MSCs). Therefore, we explore whether mechanical stimulation caused by a rotary cell culture system (RCCS) has a beneficial effect on exosome yield and biological function.

methodsU-MSCs were subjected to an RCCS at different rotational speeds and exosomes were characterised by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis and western blotting. small-interfering RNAs of Rab27a (siRNA-Rab27a) was used to reduce exosome production. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of mechanically sensitive long non-coding RNA H19 (LncRNA H19). The effects of exosomes on chondrocyte proliferation were examined using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), toluidine blue staining and a series of related genes. Annexin V-FITC and PI (V-FITC/PI) flow cytometry was used to detect the effect of exosomes on the inhibition of chondrocyte apoptosis. Macroscopic evaluation, MRI quantification and immunohistochemical staining were conducted to investigate the

resultsRCCS significantly promoted exosome production at 36 rpm/min within 196 h. Mechanical stimulation was able to increase the expression level of exosomes. The exosomal LncRNA H19 was found to promote chondrocyte proliferation and matrix synthesis and inhibit apoptosis

conclusionOur findings confirmed that mechanical stimulation can enhance exosome yield as well as biological function for the repair of cartilage defects. The underlying mechanism may be related to the high expression of LncRNA H19 in exosomes. The translational potential of this article: This study provides a theoretical support of optimizing exosome production. It advances the yield of mesenchymal stem cell exosome and facilitate the clinical application to repair of osteochondral damage.
