Functional and molecular insights in topical wound healing by ascorbic acid.
Review in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
The skin acts as a vital barrier against external threats and regulates moisture levels. The skin's repair and rejuvenation encompass complex molecular and cellular mechanisms, constituting an essential yet intricate process to preserve skin integrity following trauma or surgical intervention. Acute wound repair unfolds through different interrelated stages, whereas chronic wounds pose significant healthcare challenges, often linked to conditions like diabetes and vascular diseases. Understanding of wound physiology is crucial for developing effective treatments. Chronic wounds require more comprehensive treatments, including surgical debridement, glycemic control, and antibiotic therapy. Ascorbic acid (AA) emerges as a promising wound-healing agent because it facilitates collagen synthesis, enhances antioxidant defense, promotes re-epithelialization and angiogenesis, regulates pH, and exhibits antimicrobial properties. Research outcomes on applying AA-based formulations on wound environment demonstrated its potential to accelerate wound closure and tissue regeneration, offering hope for improved wound management and reduced healthcare burdens associated with chronic wounds. The application of AA, which often utilizes innovative delivery methods and synergistic combinations with other actives, shows promise in preclinical studies for superior efficacy, biocompatibility, and controlled release profiles. Overall, AA-based therapies represent a significant avenue for advancing wound care and addressing the challenges of chronic wounds in healthcare systems.
