Biocompatible Stimuli-Sensitive Natural Hydrogels: Recent Advances in Biomedical Applications.
Review in Gels (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Biocompatible stimuli-sensitive hydrogels are a versatile and promising class of materials with significant potential for various biomedical applications. These ''smart'' hydrogels can dynamically respond to external environmental stimuli such as pH, temperature, enzymes, or biomolecular interactions, enabling controlled drug release, tissue regeneration, wound healing, and biosensing applications. Hydrogels derived from natural polymers, including chitosan, alginate, collagen, and hyaluronic acid, offer key advantages such as intrinsic biocompatibility, biodegradability, and the ability to mimic the extracellular matrix. Their ability to respond to environmental stimuli-including pH, temperature, redox potential, and enzymatic activity-enables control over drug release and tissue regeneration processes. This review explores the fundamental principles governing the design, properties, and mechanisms of responsiveness of natural stimuli-sensitive hydrogels. It also highlights recent advancements in their biomedical applications, discusses existing challenges, and outlines future research directions aimed at improving their functional performance and therapeutic potential for sustainable healthcare solutions.
