Comparative Analysis of the Immunomodulatory Functions of Dental Follicle Stem Cells and Their Apoptotic Vesicles.
Article in Journal of stem cells & regenerative medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The significant immunomodulatory capacity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is increasingly being recognized, making them valuable for the treatment of autoimmune disorders. MSCs influence immune cell behavior during therapy through intercellular communication mediated by extracellular vesicles (EVs). Moreover, MSC-derived apoptotic vesicles (apoEVs) can also exert immunomodulatory functions. This study compared the effects of dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) and smaller apoptotic vesicles (apoSEVs) derived from DFSCs on the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), as well as their impact on T cell subpopulations and inflammatory factor expression. The results showed that apoSEVs derived from DFSCs significantly enhanced PBMC proliferation, inhibited Th1, Th17, and Treg cell populations, and reduced IFN-γ and TNF-α expression levels. These findings demonstrate that apoSEVsapoSEVs from DFSCs can effectively regulate immune responses in a manner similar to that of DFSCs themselves.
