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

We report the results of our investigations on the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic treatment (APDT) with poly-lysine-conjugated chlorin p6 (pl-cp6) on proinflammatory cytokine expression and wound healing in a murine excisional wound model infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Treatment of infected wounds with pl-cp6 and light doses of 60 and 120 J/cm(2) reduced the bacterial load by ~1.5 and 2.0 log, respectively, after 24 h. The treated wounds healed ~5 days earlier as compared to untreated control and wound closure was not dependent on light dose. Interestingly, at 96 h post-treatment, drug-treated wounds irradiated at 60 J/cm(2) showed considerable reduction of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 (approximately five times) and TNF-α (approximately four times) compared to untreated control. Further, exposure of culture supernatants to similar light dose and pl-cp6 concentration under in vitro conditions reduced the protease activity by ~50 % as compared to the untreated control, suggesting inactivation of extracellular virulent factors. Additionally, histological analysis of treated infected wounds showed complete reepithelialization, ordered collagen fibers, and considerable decrease in inflammatory cell infiltration compared to untreated wounds. These results imply that pl-cp6-mediated PDT reduces hyperinflammatory response of infected wounds, leading to acceleration of wound healing.
