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

objectivesThis study evaluated the hemostatic efficacy, biocompatibility, and wound healing promotion of a sodium alginate/polyacrylic acid composite hydrogel (SPI hydrogel) mediated by nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) in anticoagulated mice with post-extraction bleeding. MATERIALS AND

methodsPrimary human gingival fibroblasts were cultured in media containing different concentrations (1%, 10%, 25%, 50% concentration) of SPI hydrogel extracts and tested for biocompatibility using the cck8 assay. CD-1 mice were modeled for anticoagulation using oral anticoagulants. After confirming modeling success via INR assessment, mice were divided into cotton (Control), gelatin sponge (GS), and hydrogel (SPI) groups. Experiments included tooth extraction hemostasis and tail amputation tests, alongside postoperative healing observation of extraction sockets and comparative histopathological analysis.

resultsThe hydrogel extract at 50% concentration showed slight cytotoxicity and the remaining concentrations were biocompatible. Post-extraction bleeding volume in the SPI group (40 ± 21 mg) was lower than in the Control (265 ± 93 mg) and GS (133 ± 41 mg) groups. Following tail amputation, SPI group bleeding volume (7.90 ± 5.15 mg) was lower than the control group (22.70 ± 12.86 mg), and hemostasis time (1020 ± 115.11 s) was shorter than control group (1500 ± 151.24 s). HE and Masson test of wound tissue revealed superior healing, reduced inflammation, and normal collagen formation in the SPI group.

conclusionSPI hydrogel has acceptable biocompatibility, hemostatic efficacy and wound healing properties, surpassing conventional materials in treating anticoagulant-induced post-extraction bleeding. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: It provides a potential alternative for managing anticoagulant-induced bleeding after tooth extraction clinically.
