Antibacterial Properties of Rose Bengal Conjugated to Hyaluronic Acid.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Dental diseases, including conditions affecting oral structures, have become more common due to unhealthy lifestyle choices. Traditional antibiotic treatments face challenges related to the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Photodynamic antibacterial chemotherapy is emerging as a promising alternative using photosensitizers to generate reactive oxygen species upon exposure to light. This article examines the photosensitizer Rose Bengal (RB) immobilized in hyaluronic acid (HA) for prolonged antibacterial action. The RB-HA conjugate demonstrated a molar ratio of approximately three RB residues to each of the ten units of HA. RB-HA exhibited a high singlet oxygen quantum yield (ΔΦ = 0.90), suggesting its efficacy in photodynamic treatment. A photostability analysis revealed slower photobleaching of RB-HA, which is essential for prolonged application. Under visible light and ultrasonic treatment, RB-HA exhibited effective antibacterial activity against Gram-positive
