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

Skin injuries are common and can result from surgeries, burns, pressure sores, cuts, and diseases. Proper wound healing is crucial for maintaining homeostasis; wounds can be classified as acute or chronic. Acute wounds heal in four sequential phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Chronic wounds arise when this process fails, often due to prolonged inflammation. Existing treatments for chronic wounds are limited, and antibiotic resistance complicates infection control, highlighting the urgent need for new therapies. Biomaterials, particularly gelatin, have gained attention for their biomimetic properties, biocompatibility, and ability to promote healing. Gelatin's ECM-like structure supports tissue metabolism, and it can be enriched with bioactive compounds to enhance tissue regeneration, collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and antimicrobial activity. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a 3D gelatin-based patch in vivo, using
