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

Hydrogels are soft, tissue-like materials that have great potential as wound dressings. However, most hydrogels are unsatisfactory in achieving whole-layer regeneration of diabetic wounds due to the complex pathological microenvironment and irregular wound shapes. Here, a glucose-responsive and self-adaptive phenylboronic acid (PBA) hydrogel solubilized strong antioxidant flavonoids (Gel-Flavonoids) is developed via dynamic borate bonds. The Gel-Flavonoids system can spontaneously confirm to the irregular wound shape and release flavonoids in a high-glucose microenvironment to effectively eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS). The optimized Gel-Flavonoids demonstrate remarkable efficacy in inhibiting inflammation and activating fibroblasts and endothelial cells through CD36-activated lipid metabolism in macrophages and is significantly superior to commercial dressings (3M) in healing rate (> 93%, 14 days) and whole-layer regeneration effect. This study obtained a multidimensional Gel-Flavonoids system to effectively repair diabetic wounds, and reveal the underlying therapeutic mechanisms, offering a promising insight to guide the development of medical materials to treat diabetic wounds.
