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

Laminin represents a major component of the basement membrane in cardiac tissue. Through integrins binding, laminin can sustain cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation and mechanotransduction. The role of a small bioactive peptide (KKGSYNNIVVHV) derived from laminin in cardiac differentiation and functionality has been demonstrated. Briefly, results showed how the presence of laminin-derived peptide enhanced the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into cardiomyocytes-like phenotype, by modulating not only the cytoskeletal apparatus but also enhancing the cardiac and adhesion markers. Moreover, neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes in presence of the peptide showed well organized cytoskeletal rearrangements and regulated contractility. Therefore, in this study the role of laminin-derived peptide in guiding cardiomyogenesis has been characterized, opening innovative approaches in functional cardiac tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
