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
This study presents an innovative iontophoretic delivery system for glycolic acid (GA) based on polysaccharide microbeads embedded within an electrolyte hydrogel. The mi-crobeads, fabricated using a peristaltic pump, exhibited a uniform morphology with an average diameter of 1078 ± 140.38 μm and were successfully integrated into a hydrogel matrix (thickness: 4542.55 ± 337.24 μm). Comprehensive physicochemical characterization (FT-IR, XRD, SEM) confirmed effective component integration. The hydrogel demonstrated optimal mechanical properties with a tensile strength of 0.02 ± 0.003 MPa and reliable adhesion to various substrates, while maintaining excellent self-healing capabili-ties-post-repair conductivity remained sufficient to power an LED indicator. The material demonstrated favorable conductivity under various storage conditions while maintaining non-cytotoxic properties. Notably, microbead incorporation preserved electrochemical performance, as demonstrated by stable behavior in cyclic voltammetry using an Ag/AgCl reference system. Iontophoretic testing revealed significantly enhanced glycolic acid delivery at -1.0 V com-pared to passive diffusion. The system, combining PVA, PAA, alginate, [Bmim]BF
