Device · Wound-care biomaterial; no ChEMBL entity for the sheet. Evidence is material-level: registered trials use silver-alginate or alginate-containing dressings rather than the plain absorbable alginate sheet named in the source.
0 linked trials carry an injury-indication flag. These flags support record-level exploration and sit alongside the stringent aggregate counts described in Methods.

Model: Surgically created supraspinatus tendon tear with acute tendon-to-bone repair
At 12 weeks the alginate-augmented group had a greater mean ultimate failure load (61.44 plus or minus 43.67 N versus 23.70 plus or minus 3.87 N, P = 0.023) and mean ultimate stress (7.36 plus or minus 2.87 MPa versus 2.83 plus or minus 0.50 MPa, P = 0.020), while 6-week biomechanical outcomes did…
