Myocardial protection by heparin-based coacervate of FGF10.
Article in Bioactive materials, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
Heart disease is still the leading killer all around the world, and its incidence is expected to increase over the next decade. Previous reports have already shown the role of fibroblast growth factor10 (FGF10) in alleviating heart diseases. However, FGF10 has not been used to treat heart diseases because the free protein has short half-life and low bioactivity. Here, an injectable coacervate was designed to protect growth factor from degradation during delivery and the effects of the FGF10 coacervate were studied using a mice acute myocardial infarction (MI) model. As shown in our echocardiographic results, a single injection of FGF10 coacervate effectively inhibited preserved cardiac contractibility and ventricular dilation when compared with free FGF10 and the saline treatment 6 weeks after MI. It is revealed in histological results that the MI induced myocardial inflammation and fibrosis was reduced after FGF10 coacervate treatment. Furthermore, FGF10 coacervate treatment could improve arterioles and capillaries stabilization through increasing the proliferation of endothelial and mural cells. However, with the same dosage, no statistically significant difference was shown between free FGF10, heparin+FGF10 and saline treatment, especially in long term. On another hand, FGF10 coacervate also increased the expression of cardiac-associated the mRNA (cTnT, Cx43 and α-SMA), angiogenic factors (Ang-1 and VEGFA) and decreased the level of inflammatory factor (tumor necrosis factor-α). The downstream signaling of the FGF10 was also investigated, with the western blot results showing that FGF10 coacervate activated the
