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

Individual variability shapes how diseases manifest, how patients respond to therapy, and how rare phenotypes arise. Conventional experimental approaches obscure variation by averaging, which limits mechanistic insight and predictive accuracy. We present a computational framework that builds digital twins of human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes from a single optimized voltage clamp experiment. The framework depends on massive synthetic datasets comprising synthetic simulated cells that span broad ionic and electrophysiological ranges. These synthetic data make it possible to control parameters precisely, explore biological variability comprehensively, and train models beyond the limits of experimental data. A neural network trained on synthetic data then inferred cell specific biophysical parameters from experimental recordings from live cells, reproducing distinct features. Our study unites computational modeling, data simulation, and learning to enable scalable, precise, individualized cardiac electrophysiology modeling and can be readily extended to any electrically active cell type.
