Engineering Strategies for Plant-Derived Extracellular Vesicles: Modification, Drug Delivery Performance, and Synergistic Effects with Gel Composite Systems.
Review in Pharmaceutics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Plant-derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) are a novel category of natural nanocarriers with widespread availability, low immunogenicity, high biocompatibility, and inherent pharmacological activity. These features underscore their value as dual-function systems capable of serving as both carriers and bioactive agents. Unlike previous reviews that focused primarily on disease-specific applications or on individual engineering techniques, this review established a conceptual framework integrating three interconnected dimensions: (i) engineering strategies that address the inherent limitations of PDEVs (targeting, stability, loading efficiency); (ii) the carrier-performance-synergy paradigm linking PDEV composition to therapeutic outcomes; and (iii) gel-composite design principles that transform local retention into a controllable delivery platform. This review delves into various engineering methodologies, including targeted modification, enhanced stability, and optimized drug loading, while elucidating the performance characteristics of PDEVs as drug carriers, focusing on their protective, targeting, and controlled-release properties. It notably investigates the synergistic interactions between the intrinsic bioactivity of PDEVs and the drugs they deliver. Furthermore, this review highlights advanced applications of PDEV gel composites in localized drug delivery, specifically emphasizing their clinical potential for treating dermatological conditions. Finally, it highlights the current challenges faced by PDEVs and anticipates future research directions, such as synthetic biology, multi-omics analysis, and clinical translation. This review provides a theoretical framework for the rational design and clinical translation of PDEVs. It thereby promotes their innovative development in precision nanomedicine.
