Engineered In Vitro Multi-Cell Type Ventricle Model Generates Long-Term Pulsatile Flow and Modulates Cardiac Output in Response to Cardioactive Drugs.
Article in Advanced healthcare materials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cardiac in vitro models serve as promising platforms for physiological and pathological studies, drug testing, and regenerative medicine. This study hypothesizes that immobilizing cardiomyocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC-CMs) on a biofunctionalized, hemispherical membrane can generate pulsatile flow through synchronized contractions, thus offering as an in vitro left ventricle model. To test this, a ventricle using a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane coated with polydopamine and laminin 511 E8 fragments is engineered. Human iPSC-CMs are cultured on these membranes, alone or in co-culture with cardiac fibroblasts or endothelial cells, for 28 and 14 days, respectively, in a newly developed bioreactor. Flow measurements track beating and flow generation, while drug response, cardiac gene expression, and cell morphology are analyzed. The engineered ventricles maintain continuous beating and flow, achieving a theoretical cardiac output of up to 4 µL min
