Induction of cell death by sodium hexachloroplatinate (IV) in the HEI-OC1 cell line, primary rat spiral ganglion cells and rat organ of Corti explants.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Although cochlear implants have become a well-established method for patients with sensory neural hearing loss, clinical results indicate that in some cases, corrosion of electrode contacts leads to high impedance that interferes with successful stimulation of the auditory nerve. As it is unclear whether corrosion products induce cell damage, we focused on cell culture models of the organ of Corti cell line (HEI-OC1), rat spiral ganglion cells (SGC) and rat organ of Corti explant (OCex) cultivated from neonatal rat cochleae to characterize the cytotoxicity of sodium hexachloroplatinate (IV) (Na2(PtCl6)). The oxidative activity in HEI-OC1 cells decreased with increasing Na2(PtCl6) concentrations between 8 and 16 ng/μl, and live cell staining with Calcein acetoxymethyl/Ethidium homodimer III revealed an increasing number of cells with disrupted membranes. Ultrastructural evidence of mitophagy followed by necroptosis was detected. Additionally, exposure of the SGC to 15-35 ng/μl Na2(PtCl6) dose-dependently reduced neuronal survival and neuritogenesis, as determined by neurofilament antigen staining. In parallel, staining glial cells and fibroblasts with specific antibodies confirmed the dose-dependent induction of cell death by Na2(PtCl6). Exposure of the OCex to 25-45 ng/μl Na2(PtCl6) resulted in severe concentration-dependent hair cell loss. Our data show for the first time that Na2(PtCl6) induces cell death in a concentration-dependent manner in inner ear cell types and tissues.
