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

Neonatal rodent cardiomyocytes (CMs) are a mainstay of in vitro cardiac research, yet their immature phenotype limits the study of key physiological processes such as excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) and sympathetic modulation. Here, we present a defined low-glucose, serum-free (LGSF) culture protocol that drives the structural and functional maturation of neonatal CMs and supports their integration into functional neuro-cardiac co-cultures. After 15 days in LGSF conditions, CMs exhibit elongated morphology, organized sarcomeres, polarized connexin-43, mitochondrial redistribution, and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) development, all closely resembling features of adult cells. These structural hallmarks were paralleled by enhanced Ca
