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
The multifactorial nature of diabetic wounds necessitates a mixed approach for successful treatment. Compensation of degenerated wound tissue extracellular matrix (ECM) and application of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents have been shown to be promising. Here, an attempt was made to fabricate a biocompatible wound dressing from curcumin-incorporated human amniotic membrane (HAM) ECM-derived scaffold to accelerate diabetic wound healing in rats. Therefore, after inducing diabetes, an excisional ischemic wound was created on rat skin, then treatments were administered for a period of 21 days. The main groups were the diabetic animals that received an engraftment of HAM scaffold (HAMS group) and the curcumin-incorporated HAMS (HAMS/β/C group). Evaluation at post-wounding days 7, 14, and 21 indicated that the parameters related to regeneration, including wound closure, volume of new epidermis and dermis, proliferating cells, fibroblasts, blood vessels, collagen deposition, and tensile strength, as well as transcripts of Vegf, bFgf, and Tgf-β genes of the healed wound in both HAMS and HAMS/β/C groups were considerably greater than those of the diabetic group. Conversely, the presence of inflammatory cells, i.e., neutrophils and macrophages, and the transcripts of Tnf-α and Il-1β showed a dramatic decrease in the treated groups relative to the diabetic group. Finally, compared to the HAMS group, considerable differences were found with the HAMS/β/C group in almost all evaluated parameters. Overall, these results suggest that using the complementary or synergistic effects of curcumin and HAMS could be a promising approach to improve diabetic wound healing.
