Current trends regarding types, properties, self-healing mechanisms, and therapeutic strategies for diabetic wounds addressed with polysaccharide-based self-repairing hydrogels: a review.
Review in Theranostics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
As the global prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, approximately 19% to 34% of diabetes patients will develop chronic wounds or ulcers, which significantly impacts the quality of life of these patients and also imposes a heavy economic burden on the global healthcare system. The traditional treatment methods (debridement, antibiotics, regular dressing changes, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, etc.) are facing numerous challenges, including the increasing problem of bacterial resistance, high treatment costs, and poor long-term efficacy. Therefore, developing efficient and safe new treatment strategies for diabetic wounds has become a current research hotspot. Polysaccharide-based self-healing hydrogels (PSHs) have become one of the most promising wound dressings due to their excellent self-healing ability, good biodegradability, biocompatibility, and multiple biological activities. Unfortunately, there are still limitations in the research on PSHs in the field of diabetes wound treatment. Firstly, this review comprehensively introduces the types of polysaccharides with therapeutic effects on diabetic wounds and their excellent properties. Subsequently, this article systematically reviews the self-healing mechanisms of PSHs and the therapeutic strategies for diabetic wounds. Finally, this paper reviews the challenges and future prospects of PSHs in the clinical transformation of diabetic wounds. The results provide an important reference for the application of PSHs in the field of diabetes wound treatment.
