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

Hydrogel microparticles with different actives encapsulation have reliable efficacy in wound repair, and the challenge is to improve the active substance to improve the efficacy. Here, a novel ultrasonic responsive core-shell microcapsule delivery system is proposed, which can simultaneously load traditional Chinese medicine sonosensitizer and oxygen synergistic effect to promote the healing of infected wounds. The microcapsule has a core of oxygen-rich perfluorocarbon (PO) and a hydrogel shell with curcumin (PO/C-MC). Ultrasound can trigger the release of oxygen from perfluorocarbon and stimulate the sonodynamic effect of curcumin, which is not only an anti-inflammatory traditional Chinese medicine but also a sonosensitizer, thus realizing the synergistic treatment of traditional Chinese medicine and acoustic dynamics. Under the irradiation of low-intensity ultrasound, PO/C-MCs can effectively increase the oxygen concentration and enhance the antibacterial effect of sonodynamic therapy, synergizing with the anti-inflammatory effect of traditional Chinese medicine to promote the rapid healing of chronic infected wounds. The study demonstrated that ultrasound-responsive PO/C-MCs microcapsules significantly enhanced the healing process of infected wounds in mice. Given these beneficial characteristics, PO/C-MCs represent a promising therapeutic candidate with considerable potential for clinical application in managing chronic infected wounds.
