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 various cellular deficiencies, particularly insufficient angiogenesis. MicroRNA 92a (miR-92a) is a known factor in diabetic wounds that perpetuates non-healing wound phenotypes by inhibiting angiogenesis. Therefore, its local inhibition at wound sites has therapeutic potential. To achieve this, we combine a nanoparticle formulation of polyelectrolyte complex micelles (PCMs) delivering miR-92a inhibitors with a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel formulation suitable for topical application to wound sites. The nanoparticles, formed by polyelectrolyte complexation of poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(L-lysine) with RNA cargo, are functionalized with targeting peptides against vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) to improve affinity for inflamed endothelial cells. We demonstrate effective PCM encapsulation and controlled release from gel formulations
