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

backgroundCell therapy can protect cardiomyocytes from hypoxia, primarily via paracrine secretions, including extracellular vesicles (EVs). Since EVs fulfil specific biological functions based on their cellular origin, we hypothesised that EVs from human cardiac stromal cells (CMSCLCs) obtained from coronary artery bypass surgery may have cardioprotective properties.

objectivesThis study characterises CMSCLC EVs (C_EVs), miRNA cargo, cardioprotective efficacy and transcriptomic modulation of hypoxic human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). C_EVs are compared to bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell EVs (B_EVs) which are a known therapeutic EV type.

methodsCells were characterised for surface markers, gene expression and differentiation potential. EVs were compared for yield, phenotype, and ability to protect hiPSC-CMs from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. EV dose was normalised by both protein concentration and particle count, allowing direct comparison. C_EV and B_EV miRNA cargo was profiled and RNA-seq was performed on EV-treated hypoxic hiPSC-CMs, then data were integrated by multi-omics. Confirmatory experiments were carried out using miRNA mimics.

resultsAt the same dose, C_EVs were more effective than B_EVs at protecting CM integrity, reducing apoptotic markers, and cell death during hypoxia. While C_EVs and B_EVs shared 70-77% similarity in miRNA content, C_EVs contained unique miRNAs, including miR-202-5p, miR-451a and miR-142-3p. Delivering miRNA mimics confirmed that miR-1260a and miR-202/451a/142 were cardioprotective, and the latter upregulated protective pathways similar to whole C_EVs.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates the potential of cardiac tissues, routinely discarded following surgery, as a valuable source of EVs for myocardial infarction therapy. We also identify miR-1260a as protective of CM hypoxia.
