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

Fibrotic cardiomyopathy represents a significant pathological condition characterized by the interaction between cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts in the heart, and it currently lacks an effective cure. In vitro platforms, such as engineered heart tissue (EHT) developed through the co-culturing of cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts, are under investigation to elucidate and manipulate these cellular interactions. We present the first integration of mathematical electrophysiological models that encapsulate fibroblast-cardiomyocyte interactions with experimental EHT studies to identify and modulate the ion channels governing these dynamics. Our findings resolve a long-standing debate regarding the effect of fibroblast coupling on cardiomyocyte action potential duration (APD). We demonstrate that these seemingly contradictory outcomes are contingent upon the specific properties of the cardiomyocyte to which the fibroblast is coupled, particularly the relative magnitudes of the fast Na
