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

Background: Diabetic wounds are a serious complication for diabetic patients, characterized by refractoriness, high recurrence rates, and susceptibility to infection. Although current guidelines recommend evidence-based treatment strategies, clinical outcomes remain suboptimal. This paper reviews the current research status and development trends in diabetic wound treatment. Methods: Articles on diabetic wound treatment published between 2014 and 2023 were identified using the Web of Science Core Collection database, resulting in a total of 9,099 articles. Bibliometric methods were employed to analyze authors, institutions, countries, journals, keywords and references using CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Results: China has published the most articles in the field, followed by the United States. Shanghai Jiao Tong University is the leading institution in diabetic wound treatment research, and David G. Armstrong from the United States has made significant contributions to this field. "Wound Repair and Regeneration" was identified as the most influential journal. Cluster analysis of keywords revealed four main categories: (1) mechanisms of diabetic wound healing, (2) prognosis, (3) treatment, and (4) management. Conclusion: This paper systematically reviews the research on diabetic wound treatment from 2014 to 2023, outlining and forecasting global research hotspots and trends. Future research is expected to focus on treatment strategies for diabetic wounds, while interdisciplinary collaboration and advancements in intelligent management technologies have the potential to improve patient outcomes.
