1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundCharacterization of gene expression signatures for cardiomyocytes derived from embryonic stem cells will help to define their early biologic processes.

resultsA transgenic alpha-myosin heavy chain (MHC) embryonic stem cell lineage was generated, exhibiting puromycin resistance and expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) under the control of the alpha-MHC promoter. A puromycin-resistant, EGFP-positive, alpha-MHC-positive cardiomyocyte population was isolated with over 92% purity. RNA was isolated after electrophysiological characterization of the cardiomyocytes. Comprehensive transcriptome analysis of alpha-MHC-positive cardiomyocytes in comparison with undifferentiated alpha-MHC embryonic stem cells and the control population from 15-day-old embryoid bodies led to identification of 884 upregulated probe sets and 951 downregulated probe sets in alpha-MHC-positive cardiomyocytes. A subset of upregulated genes encodes cytoskeletal and voltage-dependent channel proteins, and proteins that participate in aerobic energy metabolism. Interestingly, mitosis, apoptosis, and Wnt signaling-associated genes were downregulated in the cardiomyocytes. In contrast, annotations for genes upregulated in the alpha-MHC-positive cardiomyocytes are enriched for the following Gene Ontology (GO) categories: enzyme-linked receptor protein signaling pathway (GO:0007167), protein kinase activity (GO:0004672), negative regulation of Wnt receptor signaling pathway (GO:0030178), and regulation of cell size (O:0008361). They were also enriched for the Biocarta p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) calcium signaling pathway.

conclusionThe specific pattern of gene expression in the cardiomyocytes derived from embryonic stem cells reflects the biologic, physiologic, and functional processes that take place in mature cardiomyocytes. Identification of cardiomyocyte-specific gene expression patterns and signaling pathways will contribute toward elucidating their roles in intact cardiac function.
