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

The aim of this work is to develop a novel nanofiber wound dressing with multiple functional properties that combines suitable mechanical properties, slow and controlled drug release, antifungal activity, and visual drug monitoring to accelerate wound healing while reducing systemic circulation of the drug, achieving reduced dose and side effects, and achieving patient satisfaction and compliance. In this paper, visualized nanofiber films were prepared using electrostatic spinning technology. This nanofiber wound dressing has soft tissue-like mechanical and antifungal properties and is biocompatible. In particular, the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)/tetraphenylethylene (TPE)/amphotericin B (AMB) nanofiber films showed good performance in terms of antifungal activity and cytocompatibility compared with medical gauze, and significantly accelerated the wound healing process in a mouse total wound defect model with PCL+PVP+TPE+AMB+PNIPAAm. The wound healing rate of nanofibrous membrane group was 100% at 14 days. In addition, histological analysis, collagen deposition and immunohistochemistry showed, for example, fewer inflammatory cells, more fibroblasts around the damaged area, increased wound epithelial atrophy, reduced granulation tissue, connective tissue reconstruction, epithelial tissue formation, and abundant small angiogenesis in the dermis near the epidermis; a higher level of collagen deposition fraction of 49.97%; and a simultaneous reduction in HIF-1α production and upregulated the expression of CD31. In conclusion, this antifungal nanofiber film showed promising applications throughout the skin wound healing process.
