Turmeric Herb Extract-Incorporated Biopolymer Dressings with Beneficial Antibacterial, Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Properties for Wound Healing.
Article in Polymers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and inflammation caused by excess oxidative stress are serious challenges in chronic wound healing. The aim of this work is to investigate a wound dressing based on natural- and biowaste-derived biopolymers loaded with an herb extract that demonstrates antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities without using additional synthetic drugs. Turmeric extract-loaded carboxymethyl cellulose/silk sericin dressings were produced by esterification crosslinking with citric acid followed by freeze-drying to achieve an interconnected porous structure, sufficient mechanical properties, and hydrogel formation in situ in contact with an aqueous solution. The dressings exhibited inhibitory effects on the growth of bacterial strains that were related to the controlled release of the turmeric extract. The dressings provided antioxidant activity as a result of the radical scavenging effect on DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP radicals. To confirm their anti-inflammatory effects, the inhibition of nitric oxide production in activated RAW 264.7 macrophages was investigated. The findings suggested that the dressings could be a potential candidate for wound healing.
