Mending a broken heart-targeting cardiomyocyte regeneration: a literature review.
Review in Annals of translational medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular diseases have been the leading cause of death globally for decades. Pharmacological advances targeting the sympathetic nervous system, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and fibrosis slow the progression of diverse cardiovascular diseases. However, ongoing cardiomyocyte loss is inevitable in divergent cardiovascular diseases, eventually leading to heart failure as the end stage. In this review, we focused on the key biomedical findings and underlying principles of cardiomyocyte regeneration. Methods: Literature regarding the key findings in cardiomyocyte regeneration research, including controversies on the origins of newly formed cardiomyocytes, potential barriers and strategies to heart regeneration, and the key animals, models, and methods applied in the study of heart regeneration, were broadly researched using the PubMed and Web of Science databases. Key Content and Findings: In the mammalian heart, cardiomyocytes proliferate during the embryonic and early postnatal stages, while the capability of proliferation disappears in the adult stage. An increasing amount of evidence suggests that cardiomyocytes self-renew at a very limited level and that most newly formed cardiomyocytes originate from pre-existing cardiomyocytes and not cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Several potential barriers to heart regeneration have been addressed, including metabolic switch, a large increase in multinucleated and polyploid cardiomyocytes, and alteration in the epigenome and transcriptome. In addition, immune system evolution is also associated with the loss of regenerative capacity. However, the activation of resident cardiomyocytes, somatic cell reprogramming, and direct reprogramming, in addition to the promotion of neovascularization and immune modulation, constitute the new insights into those strategies that can boost cardiac regeneration. Conclusions: Heart regeneration is one of the most popular fields in cardiovascular research and represents a promising avenue of therapeutics for mending a broken heart. Despite the controversies and challenges, a clearer picture of adult mammalian cardiac regeneration is emerging.
