Assessment of the Impact of Cold Atmospheric Plasma Application on Wound Healing in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats.

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
Diabetic wounds remain a major clinical challenge due to impaired healing associated with persistent inflammation, oxidative stress, and microvascular dysfunction. Plasma-based therapies have emerged as promising approaches for promoting tissue repair; however, comparative evidence regarding different plasma modalities remains limited. In this study, we evaluated and compared the effects of atmospheric pressure cold plasma (APCP) and plasma-activated water (PAW) on wound healing in a streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat model. Forty Wistar albino rats were randomly assigned to five groups: isotonic wet dressing, hydrocolloid dressing, APCP treatment, PAW application, and a non-diabetic control group. Wound healing was assessed using macroscopic evaluation, histopathological analysis, and biochemical measurements of systemic oxidative status. PAW treatment significantly accelerated wound closure during the early healing phase compared with conventional dressing methods (
