Microalgae as a Novel Therapy for Chronic Wound Healing.
Review in International wound journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Chronic wounds pose a substantial global health challenge, marked by persistent inflammation, infection, hypoxia, and impaired tissue regeneration. Traditional oxygen-based therapies, including hyperbaric and topical oxygen treatments, often suffer from limited efficacy, high costs, restricted accessibility, and difficulties in achieving sustained oxygen delivery. In contrast, microalgae offer a promising and sustainable alternative, owing to their biocompatibility, glucose consumption, and continuous oxygen production via photosynthesis. Innovative delivery platforms, such as hydrogels, scaffolds, sutures, microneedles, and microrobots, have demonstrated enhanced wound healing by mitigating hypoxia, reducing infection, and modulating inflammation. Recent advances in genetic engineering and 3D bioprinting further enhance the therapeutic potential of these systems. This review explores current progress in microalgae-based wound healing approaches, with a particular focus on photosynthesis-driven oxygen delivery technologies.
