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

Oral wounds, particularly those coupled with bone defects like osteoradionecrosis and periodontitis, present a profound clinical challenge. While conventional biomaterial dressings offer basic therapeutic benefits, their static nature hinders dynamic interaction with the complex wound microenvironment, where factors like fluctuating pH and enzymatic activity impair healing. This review focuses on the development of "smart" stimuli-responsive dressings that overcome this limitation. These advanced systems are engineered to sense specific intraoral signals, such as pH, reactive oxygen species, or enzymes, or external triggers like light, enabling on-demand drug release and active wound microenvironment reprogramming. We critically synthesize recent progress in their design, stimuli-responsive mechanisms and therapeutic application, with a dedicated emphasis on bone-related oral pathologies. Furthermore, the review addresses the critical translational challenges and future prospects for bridging material innovation with clinical needs, aiming to facilitate next-generation regenerative therapies for oral and craniofacial defects.
