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

Wound healing is a highly coordinated spatiotemporal sequence of events involving several cell types and tissues. The process of wound healing requires strict regulation, and its disruption can lead to the formation of chronic wounds, which can have a significant impact on an individual's health as well as on worldwide healthcare expenditure. One essential aspect within the cellular and molecular regulation of wound healing pathogenesis is that of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress. Wounding significantly elevates levels of ROS, and an array of various reactive species are involved in modulating the wound healing process, such as through antimicrobial activities and signal transduction. However, as in many pathologies, ROS play an antagonistic pleiotropic role in wound healing, and can be a pathogenic factor in the formation of chronic wounds. Whilst advances in targeting ROS and oxidative stress have led to the development of novel pre-clinical therapeutic methods, due to the complex nature of ROS in wound healing, gaps in knowledge remain concerning the specific cellular and molecular functions of ROS in wound healing. In this review, we highlight current knowledge of these functions, and discuss the potential future direction of new studies, and how these pathways may be targeted in future pre-clinical studies.
