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
Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains a progressive neurodegenerative disease with no cure. Treatment of AD relies on administering drugs that only subside the symptoms. In recent studies, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-exosomes have been marked to possess therapeutic potential for treating AD. This study aims to systematically review and analyse findings that focus on the isolation, characterisation, and sources of MSC-derived exosomes used to unravel the therapeutic potential of these exosomes targeting AD using in vitro and in vivo models. It is hypothesised that MSC-exosomes exhibit high therapeutic potential for AD treatment by exerting various modes of action. PubMed, Scopus, and Medline were used to find relevant published works from January 2016 until December 2020, using assigned keywords including "Alzheimer's disease", "secretome", and "exosomes". Only research articles meeting the predefined inclusion/exclusion criteria were selected and analysed. The risk of bias was assessed using the Office of Health Assessment and Translation tool (OHAT). A total of 17 eligible in vivo and in vitro studies were included in this review. Bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMSCs) were the most used source for exosome isolation, even though studies on exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and human umbilical cord stem cells (HUCSCs) provide more information on the characteristics. When the risk of bias was assessed, the studies presented various levels of biases. Notably, the in vitro and in vivo studies revealed neuroprotective properties of MSC-exosomes through different modes of action to alleviate AD pathology. Our review discovered that most MSC exosomes could degrade Aβ plaques, enhance neurogenesis, extenuate neuroinflammatory response through microglial activation, regulate apoptosis and reduce oxidative stress. Delivery of exosomal micro-RNAs was also found to reduce neuroinflammation. Findings from this review provided convincing systematic evidence highlighting the therapeutic properties of MSC-derived exosomes as a prospective source for cell-free (acellular) therapy in treating AD.
