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

Hydrogels for biomedical applications such as controlled drug release are usually synthesized with the chemical or physical crosslinking of monomers or macromers. In this work, we used gelatin to prepare hydrogel nanoparticles and studied whether gelatin nanoparticles (GNPs) could assemble to form a solid biomaterial and whether this solid biomaterial was capable of transforming into a hydrogel upon introduction to a hydrated environment. The data show that GNPs with or without aptamer functionalization could form a nanoparticle-assembled porous solid biomaterial after freezing and lyophilization treatment. This formation did not need any additional crosslinking reactions. More importantly, this solid biomaterial could undergo solid-to-hydrogel transition after contacting a solution and this transformation was tunable to match different shapes and geometries of defined molds. The formed hydrogel could also sequester and release growth factors for the promotion of skin wound healing. Thus, GNP-assembled solid biomaterials hold great potential as an off-the-shelf therapy for biomedical application such as drug delivery and regenerative medicine.
