1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Tissue repair is often impaired in pathological states, highlighting the need for innovative wound-healing technologies. This study introduces composite hyaluronic acid gas-entrapping materials (GEMs) delivering carbon monoxide (CO) to promote wound healing in pigs. These composite materials facilitate burst release followed by sustained release of CO over 48 h. In a porcine full-thickness wound model, CO-GEMs significantly accelerated wound closure compared to the standard-of-care dressing (Tegaderm). Wound area closure with CO-GEMs was 68.6% vs 56.8% on day 14, 41.0% vs 25.1% on day 28, and 26.9% vs 11.8% on day 42, effectively reducing healing time by 14 days. Histological analysis revealed increased epithelialization and neovascularization with reduced inflammation. These findings demonstrate the potential of CO-GEMs as a topical therapeutic to enhance tissue repair in clinically relevant models, supporting further testing for wound-healing applications.
