Where can you trace each numbered claim?

What do the long paper titles mean for you?

Each cited number points to a paper below. We retain the published titles so you can find the original work. The study sections explain what happened to whom in plain words. Stomach-ulcer and tendon studies used rats; gut papers used cells or mice. Some gut tests enclosed peptide in gels or tiny protective particles. The wound and stroke experiments used whole thymosin beta-4. Those papers cannot prove effects of the smaller TB-500 piece. Reviews examined earlier research on repair, skin or inflammation rather than treating another patient group. Small human safety tests checked short-term unwanted effects, without proving healing or lasting safety.

Beyond the title, ask what was given and whether people or animals improved.
