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.

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.

Abstract

Electrospun polymeric matrices have long been investigated as constructs for use in regenerative medicine, yet relatively few have been commercialized for human clinical use. In 2017, a novel electrospun matrix, composed of two synthetic biocompatible polymers, polyglactin 910 (PLGA 10:90) and polydioxanone (PDO) of varying pore and fiber sizes (i.e., hybrid-scale) was developed and cleared by the FDA for human clinical use. The present review aims to explain the mechanism of action and review the preclinical and clinical results to summarize the efficacy of the matrix across multiple use cases within the wound care setting, including an assessment of over 150 wounds of varying etiologies treated with the synthetic matrix. Clinical data demonstrated effective use of the synthetic hybrid-scale fiber matrix across a variety of wound etiologies, including diabetic foot and venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, burns, and surgical wounds. This review represents a comprehensive clinical demonstration of a synthetic, electrospun, hybrid-scale matrix and illustrates its value and versatility across multiple wound etiologies.
