In vitro activity of hypochlorous acid generating electrochemical bandage against monospecies and dual-species bacterial biofilms.

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
aimsAs antimicrobial resistance is on the rise, treating chronic wound infections is becoming more complex. The presence of biofilms in wound beds contributes to this challenge. Here, the activity of a novel hypochlorous acid (HOCl) producing electrochemical bandage (e-bandage) against monospecies and dual-species bacterial biofilms formed by bacteria commonly found in wound infections was assessed. METHODS AND
resultsThe system was controlled by a wearable potentiostat powered by a 3V lithium-ion battery and maintaining a constant voltage of + 1.5V Ag/AgCl, allowing continuous generation of HOCl. A total of 19 monospecies and 10 dual-species bacterial biofilms grown on polycarbonate membranes placed on tryptic soy agar (TSA) plates were used as wound biofilm models, with HOCl producing e-bandages placed over the biofilms. Viable cell counts were quantified after e-bandages were continuously polarized for 2, 4, 6, and 12 hours. Time-dependent reductions in colony forming units (CFUs) were observed for all studied isolates. After 12 hours, average CFU reductions of 7.75 ± 1.37 and 7.74 ± 0.60 log10 CFU/cm2 were observed for monospecies and dual-species biofilms, respectively.
conclusionsHOCl producing e-bandages reduce viable cell counts of in vitro monospecies and dual-species bacterial biofilms in a time-dependent manner in vitro. After 12 hours, >99.999% reduction in cell viability was observed for both monospecies and dual-species biofilms.
