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

Diabetic wound healing is hindered by bacterial infections, oxidative stress, impaired vascularization, and chronic inflammation. Conventional dressings, limited by static drug release and single-functionality, fail to dynamically match the varying demands of different healing stages and dressing replacement frequencies. This study developed a multifunctional sprayable hydrogel dressing (Exo@AMCN) by photocrosslinking methacrylated decellularized dermal matrix co-loaded with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUCMSC-Exo) and β-cyclodextrin-borneol inclusion complexes (CN). The hydrogel can be sprayed onto irregularly shaped wounds, with its crosslinking density and degradation kinetics precisely modulated by adjusting the photocuring duration. This tunability enables controlled release of exosomes and borneol over 2-7 days. Experimental findings demonstrate that Exo@AMCN displays excellent biocompatibility, broad-spectrum antibacterial activity (>85 % efficacy), and robust reactive oxygen species scavenging capacity. The dressing significantly boosts cell migration, fosters angiogenesis, and prompts macrophage polarization toward anti-inflammatory phenotypes. In a diabetic wound model, Exo@AMCN reduced residual wound area to 1.07 ± 1.27 % within 14 days by modulating tissue inflammation, enhancing collagen deposition, and stimulating neovascularization. This innovative approach, combining controlled drug release with multifunctional synergy, offers a promising individualized solution for managing diabetic wounds.
