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

Diabetic wounds are characterized by chronic inflammation, vascular insufficiency, and peripheral neuropathy, which collectively disrupt the neurovascular microenvironment essential for coordinated tissue regeneration. However, strategies targeting neurovascular regeneration remain limited. Here, we developed a sprayable hydrogel sponge based on gelatin methacryloyl and methacrylamide-modified ε-poly-L-lysine (S-GPL), co-functionalized with VEGF-mimetic peptide (KLT) and BDNF-mimetic peptide (RGI). The sprayable format conforms to irregular wound geometries, while the pneumatic spraying technique generates high-pressure microbubbles that create a porous structure, thereby enhancing exudate absorption and sustained peptide release as a sponge dressing. Additionally, the incorporation of KLT and RGI facilitates the reconstruction of the neurovascular microenvironment. In vitro, KLT promoted endothelial cell maturation and cytokine secretion, whereas RGI enhanced Schwann cell activity. Notably, S-GPL
