Chirality Effect on Physical and Biological Properties of Peptide-Based Hydrogels.
Review in Gels (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The self-assembly of peptide-based building blocks into ordered structures is widely exploited for the development of novel biomaterials, including hydrogels. In this review, we analyze the effect of chirality on the ability of peptides to form hydrogels. We describe systems composed of peptides of opposite chirality i.e., peptides composed of all L- or D-amino acids and peptides composed of amino acids with alternate chirality, i.e., one L- and D-amino acid or one block containing all L-amino acid followed by one block composed of all D-amino acids. Finally, we illustrate systems composed of mixtures of L- and D-peptides. The structural features of these compounds are discussed. We further compare the mechanical properties of hydrogels formed by homochiral and heterochiral peptides. Finally, we discuss the potential biological applications of these systems, focusing on the differences between hydrogels formed from peptides of opposite chirality or mixed chirality.
