MLO-Y4 fluid flow shear stress conditioned media enhances cardiac contractility and intracellular Ca
Article in American journal of physiology. Regulatory, integrative and comparative physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The skeleton is in complex interplay with the other systems of the body and is highly responsive to input from the external environment. Bone mechanical loading results in interstitial fluid flow via the lacunar-canalicular system, generating fluid flow sheer stress (FFSS). FFSS variably stresses osteocytes, subsequently causing the release of metabolites and protein factors that function locally to increase bone formation and may play a role in cross talk between various organ systems, for instance between bone and skeletal muscle. Therefore, we hypothesized that this cross talk includes altering cardiac function. To test this hypothesis, media conditioned by MLO-Y4 osteocyte-like cell culture line under FFSS was used to model the endocrine effects of bone during mechanical loading on contraction of ex vivo Langendorf-perfused isolated hearts. When hearts were externally paced at a fixed rate, FFSS osteocyte conditioned media (CM) induced significant premature contractions compared with vehicle (control). FFSS osteocyte CM administration to self-paced hearts increased total contraction force by 31%. To determine whether the mechanism involved intracellular Ca
