Chitosan-Based Biomaterial in Wound Healing: A Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 61 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
Wound healing is an evolving and intricate technique that is vital to the restoration of tissue integrity and function. Over the past few decades, chitosan a biopolymer derived from chitin, became known as an emerging biomaterial in the field of healing wounds due to its distinctive characteristics including biocompatibility, biodegradability, affinity to biomolecules, and wound-healing activity. This natural polymer exhibits excellent healing capabilities by accelerating the development of new skin cells, reducing inflammation, and preventing infections. Due to its distinct biochemical characteristics and innate antibacterial activity, chitosan has been extensively researched as an antibacterial wound dressing. Chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers and liver disease, are a growing medical problem. Chitosan-based biomaterials are a promising solution in the domain of wound care. The article analyzes the depth of chitosan-based biomaterials and their impact on wound healing and also the methods to enhance the advantages of chitosan by incorporating bioactive compounds. This literature review is aimed to improve the understanding and knowledge about biomaterials and their use in wound healing.
