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

Burns are physically debilitating and potentially fatal injuries. Two marine biomaterials, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) and collagen peptides (COP), have emerged as promising burn dressings. In this paper, sponges of carboxymethyl chitosan grafted with collagen peptide (CMC-COP) were prepared by covalent coupling and freeze drying. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were then used to characterize the prepared sponges. To evaluate the wound healing activity of the CMC-COP sponges, in vitro tests including cell viability scratch wound healing and scald wound healing experiments were performed in rabbits. Appearance studies revealed the porous nature of sponges and FTIR spectroscopy demonstrated the successful incorporation of COP into CMC. The in vitro scratch assay showed that treatment with CMC-COP sponges (at 100 μg/mL) had significant effects on scratch closure. For burn wounds treated with CMC-COP, regeneration of the epidermis and collagen fiber deposition was observed on day 7, with complete healing of the epidermis and wound on days 14 and 21, respectively. Based on the pathological examination by hematoxylin and eosinstaining, the CMC-COP group demonstrated pronounced wound healing efficiencies. These results confirmed that the CMC-COP treatment enhanced cell migration and promoted skin regeneration, thereby highlighting the potential application of these sponges in burn care.
