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

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the major cause of vision decline in adults worldwide. Photoreceptor loss is considered a main pathogenesis of retinal dysfunction in DR. Recently, mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MEVs) treatment has been considered a promising cell-free approach for retinal disorders. However, the role and mechanism of MEVs in alleviating photoreceptor injury in DR remain unclear. In this study, MEV treatment improved retinal function and inhibited photoreceptor apoptosis in db/db mice. Mechanistically, the deubiquitinating enzyme ubiquitin-specific peptidase 25 (USP25) in MEVs was responsible for the MEV-mediated photoreceptor therapy by inhibiting hyperglycemia-induced αA-crystallin (CRYAA) ubiquitination. Moreover, USP25-enriched MEVs modified with the photoreceptor-targeting peptide MH42 (MEVs
