Evidence basis. The narrower profile ("E. Rohde": 2 papers, 0 citations) conflicts sharply with the OpenAlex-verified Eva Rohde profile (A5024617009, ORCID 0000-0001-8692-886X): 154 works, 29,042 citations, h-index 35, and citations rising monotonically to 4,527 in 2026 β a strongly still-active trajectory . Her two signature contributions are (1) a 2005 first-author Stem Cells paper showing blood monocytes can mimic endothelial progenitor cells, critically reframing EPC assays , and (2) co-developing human platelet lysate to replace fetal bovine serum for clinical-scale MSC expansion . She has consistently shaped EV-therapy standardization (ISEV position papers, MSC-sEV definitions, manufacturing reviews) .
Limitations. Most top papers are consensus/position statements where Rohde is one of dozens of co-authors, so per-author contribution is unattributable; citation counts inflate via guideline adoption rather than independent empirical discovery. First-author empirical work is concentrated 2005β2010 in the Graz/Paracelsus groups. The 2-paper/h-0 profile is an entity-resolution artifact (French-language patent-style records), a known OpenAlex name-disambiguation blind spot β conclusions drawn from it alone would be misleading.
