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

There are high expectations regarding heart regeneration for refractory heart failure (HF). Transplantation of human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs) is expected to replace CMs lost due to HF, and various studies have been conducted to apply this therapy clinically. Though issues such as arrhythmias and immune rejection remain, the mass production of purified hPSC-derived CMs, their efficient transplantation, and methods to improve their engraftment pushed up the transplantation of hPSC-derived CMs to the clinical stage. In contrast, a direct cardiac reprogramming method has been developed, where cardiac fibroblasts are directly converted into CM-like cells without undergoing PSCs by overexpressing reprogramming factors. Although many challenges still remain in the clinical application of direct cardiac reprogramming, this can be a novel treatment which overcomes issues of transplantation of hPSC-derived CMs.
