Rescue of mitochondrial dysfunction through alteration of extracellular matrix composition in barth syndrome cardiac fibroblasts.
Article in Biomaterials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Fibroblast-ECM (dys)regulation is associated with a plethora of diseases. The ECM acts as a reservoir of inflammatory factors and cytokines that mediate molecular mechanisms within cardiac cell populations. The role of ECM-mitochondria crosstalk in the development and progression of cardiac disorders remains uncertain. We evaluated the influence of ECM produced by stromal cells from patients with the mitochondrial cardiomyopathy (Barth syndrome, BTHS) and unaffected healthy controls on cardiac fibroblast (CF) metabolic function. To do this, cell-derived matrices CDMs were generated from BTHS and healthy human pluripotent stem cell-derived CFs (hPSC-CF) and used as cell culture substrates. BTHS CDMs negatively impacted the mitochondrial function of healthy hPSC-CFs while healthy CDMs improved mitochondrial function in BTHS hPSC-CFs. Mass spectrometry comparisons identified 5 matrisome proteins differentially expressed in BTHS compared to healthy CDM. Our results highlight a key role for the ECM in disease through its impact on mitochondrial function.
