Extracellular vesicles isolated from adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (ADSC-EVs) have demonstrated promising potential in wound healing treatment. To determine the therapeutic efficacy of ADSC-EVs for diabetic wounds in preclinical models, we performed a meta-analysis of available studies. PubMed and Embase were searched (to April 23, 2023). All full-text articles describing the therapeutic application of ADSC-EVs in diabetic wounds were included. Study outcomes were pooled using a random effects meta-analysis, including wound closure, angiogenesis, and collagen deposition. Other outcomes were only discussed descriptively. Seventy unique records were identified from our search; 20 full-text articles were included for qualitative analysis. Twelve studies were eligible for quantitative meta-analysis. The results showed that ADSC-EVs accelerated diabetic wound healing compared to controls with a large effect (standardized mean difference (SMD) 4.22, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.07 to 5.36). The administration of ADSC-EVs also improved neovascularization (SMD 9.27, 95% CI 4.70 to 13.83) and collagen deposition (SMD 2.19, 95% CI 0.94 to 3.44), with a large effect. The risk of bias was unclear in all included studies. Conclusively, ADSC-EV is an effective treatment for diabetic wounds in preclinical trials, and it appears justified for transfer into the clinical field.
