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

purposeDipotassium glycyrrhizinate (DPG) has anti-inflammatory properties, besides promoting the regeneration of skeletal muscle. However, it has not been reported on skin wound healing/regeneration. This research aimed to characterize the effects of DPG in the treatment of excisional wounds by second intention.

methodsMale adults (n=10) and elderly (n=10) Wistar rats were used. Two circular wounds were excised on the dorsal skin. The excised normal skins were considered adult (GAN) and elderly (GIN) naïve. For seven days, 2% DPG was applied on the proximal excision: treated adult (GADPG) and elderly (GIDPG), whereas distal excisions were untreated adult (GANT) and elderly (GINT). Wound healing areas were daily measured and removed for morphological analyses after the 14th and the 21st postoperative day. Slides were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, Masson's trichrome, and picrosirius red.

resultsHistological analysis revealed intact (GAN/GIN) and regenerated(GANT/GINT/GADPG/GIDPG) skins. No differences of wounds' size were found among treated groups. Epidermis was thicker after 14 days and thinner after 21 days of DPG administration. Higher collagen I density was found in GIDPG (14th day) and GADPG (21st day).

conclusionsDPG induced woundhealing/skin regeneration, with collagen I, being more effective in the first 14 days after injury.
