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

Due to the barrier effect of dental plaque and the growing issue of antibiotic resistance, the efficacy of conventional antimicrobial agents against oral pathogens has progressively declined. Chronic periodontal infections are recalcitrant to eradication and exert inhibitory effects on bone repair and regeneration, representing one of the primary challenges in the management of periodontitis-induced bone defects. In this study, we developed an injectable cationic photopolymerizable dual-crosslinked O-HAMA/GelMA/PLL hydrogel. The aldehyde groups on oxidized HAMA undergo a Schiff base reaction with the amino groups of ε-polylysine (ε-PLL), forming dynamic crosslinks. Subsequently, blue light triggers a radical polymerization of the double bonds present in GelMA and O-HAMA, creating a secondary layer of covalent crosslinks. This dual-crosslinked structure enables the sustained release of the cationic antimicrobial peptide ε-PLL for up to 14 days, demonstrating superior controlled-release properties. Furthermore, the hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility and enhanced mechanical strength, thus fulfilling the requirements for clinical applications. The
