Conductive hydrogels for tissue repair.
Review in Chemical science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels (CHs) combine the biomimetic properties of hydrogels with the physiological and electrochemical properties of conductive materials, and have attracted extensive attention in the past few years. In addition, CHs have high conductivity and electrochemical redox properties and can be used to detect electrical signals generated in biological systems and conduct electrical stimulation to regulate the activities and functions of cells including cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. These properties give CHs unique advantages in tissue repair. However, the current review of CHs is mostly focused on their applications as biosensors. Therefore, this article reviewed the new progress of CHs in tissue repair including nerve tissue regeneration, muscle tissue regeneration, skin tissue regeneration and bone tissue regeneration in the past five years. We first introduced the design and synthesis of different types of CHs such as carbon-based CHs, conductive polymer-based CHs, metal-based CHs, ionic CHs, and composite CHs, and the types and mechanisms of tissue repair promoted by CHs including anti-bacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, stimulus response and intelligent delivery, real-time monitoring, and promoted cell proliferation and tissue repair related pathway activation, which provides a useful reference for further preparation of bio-safer and more efficient CHs used in tissue regeneration.
