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

Eosinophils have recently been recognized as hepatoprotective immune cells; however, cell-based therapies still face significant challenges. Apoptotic extracellular vesicles (ApoEVs) serve as critical cell-free alternatives capable of promoting tissue repair, yet exhibit marked functional heterogeneity dependent on their cell source. The therapeutic potential and mechanisms of eosinophil-derived ApoEVs (Eos-ApoEVs) in steatotic liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remain elusive. Herein, treatment with Eos-ApoEVs effectively reversed oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R)-induced cellular dysfunction in hepatocytes and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). Moreover, Eos-ApoEVs exerted potent immunomodulatory effects. Mechanistically, Eos-ApoEVs are enriched with functional mitochondria that fuse with damaged mitochondria in recipient cells, thereby reprogramming energy metabolism to promote hepatocyte proliferation, restore LSEC migration and tube-forming capacity, and facilitate anti-inflammatory macrophage polarization. To develop a clinically translatable therapeutic approach, we constructed a decellularized amniotic matrix (dAM)-based hydrogel patch (ApoEVs@dAM/HA-DA), which enables sustained release of ApoEVs and exhibits high biocompatibility. In a mouse model of steatotic liver I/R injury, transplantation of ApoEVs@dAM/HA-DA onto the liver surface significantly increased anti-inflammatory macrophage polarization, attenuated inflammation, promoted hepatocyte proliferation and enhanced angiogenesis, thereby accelerating liver repair. Thus, surface transplantation of ApoEVs@dAM/HA-DA provides a clinically viable and potent therapeutic strategy for steatotic liver I/R injury.
