Functional expression of potassium channels in cardiomyocytes derived from embryonic stem cells.

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
Royan B(1) stem cell can be differentiated to specialized cell types including cardiomyocytes. This developmental change is accompanied with expression of various K(+) channel types. The aim of this study was to detect functional expression of K(+) currents from stem cell stage and one week and two weeks after differentiation into cardiomyocyte. Mouse stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (ES-cardiomyocytes) were isolated to single cell suspension for K(+) current recording using whole cell patch-clamp technique. The predominant depolarizing current in ES-cardiomyocytes was a tetraethylammonium (TEA) (10 mM) sensitive current which was partially blocked by nifedipine (1 μM) and attenuated by increasing concentration of EGTA (10 mM) in the pipette solution. Pharmacology and electrophysiological properties of this oscillatory sustained current very well matched with characteristics of Ca(2+) activated K(+) current. In addition there was another kind of sustained outward K(+) current which was resistance to TEA but was inhibited by 3,4-diaminopyridine. The characteristic features of this current indicate that this current was due to activation of delayed rectifier K(+) channels. RT-PCR study also confirmed expression of these two types of K(+) channels in ES-cardiomyocytes. Therefore, present study shows functional expression of two types of K(+) ionic current in ES-cardiomyocytes.
