Optical Imaging of Single Extracellular Vesicles: Recent Progress and Prospects.
Review in Chemical & biomedical imaging, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small, membrane-bound structures released by various cell types into the extracellular environment, which play a crucial role in intercellular communication and the transfer of biomolecules between cells. Given their functional significance, there are intense research interests to use EVs as disease markers and drug carriers. However, EVs characterization is greatly hindered by the small size, the low biomolecule payload, and the high level of heterogeneity. To address these challenges, researchers have adopted sensitive microscopic methods such as single-molecule fluorescence imaging, single-particle dark-field imaging, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, and surface plasmon resonance imaging for single EV analysis. These techniques can detect signals from individual EVs, enabling a detailed study of the heterogeneity. Analysis of EVs cargo has provided insights into the protein/nucleic acid expression and enabled subgroup differentiation. Superresolution mapping has visualized EVs structures, and single EV tracking has offered insights into their release and uptake mechanisms. In this review, we will summarize the recent advances in optical imaging of single EVs, including the biomarkers used for EV labeling, the performance of the reported microscopic methods, and their biological findings. Finally, we will address the limitations of the existing methods and outline prospects for future development in this field.
