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

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of global mortality. These conditions are associated with cardiac cell death and loss of vascularization, potentially progressing to fatal myocardial infarction. However, the lack of accurate models to simulate the complex cardiac tissue microenvironment and explore alternative therapeutics contributes to heart disease still being regarded as irreversible. In this work, we developed a unique organ-on-chip platform that integrates electrical, magnetic, and mechanical stimulation to replicate the cardiac microenvironment and investigate the impact of electrical and magnetic stimulation on cardiac cell fate. Our micromodel integrated triple stimulating inputs using hybrid stimuli-responsive materials. Electromagnetic scaffolds were obtained by coating with conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) electrospun coaxial fibers comprising a polycaprolactone (PCL) shell and a core of gelatin embedded with iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs). These scaffolds were incorporated in the chip, and the properties and biological effects of these aligned electromagnetic fibers were compared with those of PEDOT:PSS-coated gelatin hydrogels with aligned magnetic particles. In the presence of an external magnetic field, both materials became more hydrophilic. PEDOT:PSS coaxial fibers demonstrated higher electroconductivity (7.9 S·cm
