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

objectiveTo explore the role of joint regulation of Wnt and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathways in the differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into cardiomyocytes.

methodsHiPSCs were cultured and observed under inverted phase contrast microscope. Immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the expressions of hiPSCs pluripotent markers (OCT3/4, NANOG, and TRA-1-60). HiPSCs were passaged which were taken for subsequent experiments within the 35th passage. When the fusion degree of hiPSCs was close to 100%, the CHIR99021 (Wnt pathway activator) was added on the 0th day of differentiation. Different concentrations of IWP4 (inhibitor of Wnt production) were added on the 3rd day of differentiation, and the best concentration of IWP4 was added at different time points. The optimal concentration and the best effective period of IWP4 were obtained by detecting the expression of troponin T (TNNT2) mRNA by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Then, on the basis of adding CHIR99021 and IWP4, different concentrations of BMP-4 were added on the 5th day of differentiation, and the best concentration of BMP-4 was added at different time points. The optimal concentration and best effective period of BMP-4 were obtained by detecting the expression of TNNT2 mRNA. Finally, hiPSCs were divided into three groups: Wnt group, BMP group, and Wnt+BMP group. On the basis of adding CHIR99021 on the 0th day of differentiation, IWP4, BMP-4, and IWP4+BMP-4 were added into Wnt group, BMP group, and Wnt+BMP group respectively according to the screening results. Cells were collected on the 7th and the 15th days of differentiation. The expressions of myocardial precursor cell markers [ISL LIM homeobox 1 (ISL1), NK2 homeobox 5 (NKX2-5)] and cardiomyocyte specific markers [myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C), myosin light chain 2 (MYL2), MYL7, and TNNT2] were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Cells were collected on the 28th day of differentiation, and the expression of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) was detected by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining.

resultsThe results of cell mophology and immunoflurescence staining showed that the OCT3/4, NANOG, and TRA-1-60 were highly expressed in hiPSCs, which suggested that hiPSCs had characteristics of pluripotency. The optimal concentration of IWP4 was 10.0 μmol/L (

conclusionJoint regulation of Wnt and BMP signaling pathways can improve the differentiation efficiency of hiPSCs into cardiomyocytes.
