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

In this paper, we report the development of a wireless, passive, biocompatible, and flexible system for stimulation of human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMS). Fabricated on a transparent parylene/PDMS substrate, the proposed stimulator enables real-time excitation and characterization of hiPSC-CMs cultured on-board. The device comprises a rectenna operating at 2.35 GHz which receives radio frequency (RF) energy from an external transmitter and converts it into DC voltage to deliver monophasic stimulation. The operation of the stimulator was primarily verified by delivering monophasic voltage pulses through gold electrodes to hiPSC-CMs cultured on the Matrigel-coated substrates. Stimulated hiPSC-CMs beat in accordance with the monophasic pulses when delivered at 0.5, 1, and 2 Hz pulsing frequency, while no significant cell death was observed. The wireless stimulator could generate monophasic pulses with an amplitude of 8 V at a distance of 15 mm. These results demonstrated the proposed wireless stimulator's efficacy for providing electrical stimulation to engineered cardiac tissues. The proposed stimulator will have a wide application in tissue engineering where a fully wireless stimulation of electroconductive cells is needed. The device also has potential to be employed as a cardiac stimulator by delivering external stimulation and regulating the contractions of cardiac tissue.
