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

Microencapsulation is an innovative technique having a growing application in textile finishing. Besides, marine macroalgae contain plenty of phytoconstituents used in various fields especially textile finishing. This work imparts the property of wound healing finish to cotton fabrics producing a bandage from eco-friendly algal volatile organic constituents (VOCs). VOCs extracted from Digenea simplex, Lurencea papillosa, Galaxurea oblongata, and Turbenaria decurrens Egyptian marine macroalgae scattered along the coastline of the Red sea were 0.52, 0.9, 0.87, and 0.62% (v/w), respectively. These VOCs as well as their microencapsulated (VOM) forms were finished onto cotton fabrics by a conventional pad-dry cure technique using sodium alginate (SA) as a shell wall material. The VOCs of each alga were extracted and chemically investigated using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results indicate, in addition to the identification of 125 volatile compounds, the diversity and outstanding differences in volatile composition among the 4 algae. Wound healing activities of the finished fabrics were evaluated. VOCs microcapsules-finished (VOMF) fabrics were more effective compared to VOCs-finished (VOF) fabrics and almost comparable to mebo-ointment (standard drug)-finished (MoF) fabrics. The differences in VOCs efficiencies may be attributable to the diversity in type and amount of volatiles found in the four algae. Therefore, this is a low-cost, convenient, reproducible, and scalable way to obtain encapsulated VOCs for the application in textile wound healing.
