Ambient Light-Activatable Luminescent Particle-Embedded Conformal Patch for Photochemical Tissue Bonding and Photobiomodulated Healing.
Article in Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.), 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
Biophotonic healthcare devices have been widely investigated for photochemical tissue bonding (PTB), photobiomodulation (PBM), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and photothermal therapy (PTT). However, their clinical applications remain limited due to the short light penetration depth and the incompliant light source, including externally powered light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Here, we present a stretchable photonic patch embedded with biocompatible room light- and sunlight-activatable luminescent particles (RSLPs) in an elastomeric matrix. This patch enables ambient light-activatable phototherapy without an external light source by absorbing broadband ambient light and converting it into red luminescence. The emission promotes PTB, fibroblast proliferation, and M1/M2 macrophage polarization for tissue regeneration, activating photosensitizers to induce collagen crosslinking and wound sealing. The conformal patch maintains optical performance even under movement, enabling continuous phototherapy during daily life activity. Remarkably, after PTB-driven sealing, wound healing is accelerated in both linear and circular wounds, mediated by PBM-induced tissue regeneration. A further clinical study on normal human facial skins demonstrates that a single PBM treatment with the patch acutely improves viscoelastic recovery and attenuates superficial erythema. This ambient light-activatable biophotonic patch platform would pave a big avenue toward PTB, PBM, and various biomedical applications.
