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

Infected wounds are common clinical injuries that often complicated by inflammation and oxidative stress due to bacterial invasion. These wounds typically suffer from impaired vascularization, which delays healing and increases the risk of complications such as sepsis and chronic wounds. Therefore, developing an effective treatment for infected wounds is highly necessary. Egg white can promote cell regeneration and repair, while chitosan is effective in resisting bacterial invasion. Sildenafil is believed to have the potential to promote angiogenesis. Based on these properties, we have prepared a new type of hydrogel using egg white and chitosan as the framework, loaded with sildenafil (CEHS). The hydrogel combines the benefits of its components, exhibiting good biocompatibility and promoting the proliferation and migration of NIH 3T3 (3T3) cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), as well as the angiogenesis in HUVEC. It also exhibits significant antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties against
