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

The present study focused on the culture medium of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) prior to the use of cardiomyocytes differentiation induction medium (pre-culture medium). Seven types (Nos. 1-7) of StemFit AK03 medium (Ajinomoto) for clinical iPSCs with varying compositions were prepared as pre-culture medium. The cardiac muscle troponin T (cTnT) positivity of No. 1 (StemFit AK03 medium) was 84%, No. 3 (similar to E8 medium) was 89%, No. 2 (similar to E8 medium) was 91%, No. 5 (similar to EB Formation medium) was 95%, when using differentiation induction medium prepared with known components available for clinical cell production. The formation of cardiac tissues was assessed by evaluating the expression levels of specific markers, including cTnT, atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP), and pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (proBNP). The results demonstrated that cardiac tissue with high protein expression levels of cTnT and ANP was formed when similar to E8 medium as pre-culture medium.
