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

The term extracellular vesicles (EVs) includes a variety of anucleated, non-self-replicative particles released by cells, whose cargo content is compartmentalized by a lipidic bilayer membrane and includes proteins, DNA, and RNA (both coding and non-coding) molecules. MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNA involved in gene expression regulation that functionally participate in inter-cellular communication as EV cargo. Natural Killer (NK) cells are innate immunity lymphocytes specialized in the killing of cancer cells and virally infected cells. Increasing evidence shows that NK cell-derived EVs contribute to the anti-tumoral activity of NK cells and that such effects are, at least in part, mediated by the miR cargo of these EVs. Conversely, cancer cells release EVs whose cargo includes proteins and miRs that impair NK cell function. These interactions highlight a central role for EV miRs both in the NK-mediated cytotoxicity and as a major immune-escape mechanism for cancer cells, ultimately contributing to the overall success or failure of NK cells in eliciting their anti-tumoral activity.
