      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Single, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Block Randomization
In this study, randomization will be conducted using a block randomization method with an allocation ratio of 1:1 (equal distribution between the two groups).
A total of 30 participants will be randomly assigned equally into two groups:

Group A: Receiving treatment with cell-loaded hydrogel

Group B: Receiving routine treatment

To maintain balance in the number of participants in each group throughout the study, blocks of four (Block size = 4) were used. There are six possible permutations of the two treatments (A and B) within a four-subject block:

AABB – ABAB – ABBA – BBAA – BABA – BAAB

The sequence of block assignments was randomly generated using the Random Allocation Software.
In total, 7 full blocks (4 participants each) and 1 final block (2 participants, with a 1:1 ratio of A to B) were designed to allocate all 30 participants.

The randomly selected treatment sequences for each block are as follows:

Block Number	Randomized Treatment Sequence
1	ABAB
2	BAAB
3	AABB
4	BBAA
5	ABBA
6	BABA
7	AABB
8 (Final)	AB

The final allocation of participants will be carried out upon enrollment, based on the predefined sequences. Allocation concealment will be ensured by a person not involved in the execution of the study.</study_design>
