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

Hyaluronic acid (HyA) is a non-sulphated linear polysaccharide found abundantly in the extracellular matrix, known for its biocompatibility and versatility in tissue engineering. Chemical modifications of HyA, including methacrylate, acrylate, click chemistry, norbornene, or host-guest chemistry, are necessary for the formation of stable hydrogels with tuneable biophysical characteristics. These modifications enable precise control over stiffness, swelling, degradation, and advanced functionalities such as shear-thinning, self-healing, and injectability. Functionalisation further enhances hydrogel bioactivity, enabling controlled cell adhesion, modulation of cell behaviour, hydrogel degradation, and release profiles, as well as inflammation modulation or bacterial growth inhibition. These are achieved by conjugating proteins, peptides, antibodies, or reactive chemical groups. HyA hydrogels find broad applications both
