Transfer of macromolecules into living adult cardiomyocytes by microinjection.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Among techniques commonly used to deliver bioactive molecules into living cells, microinjection is a very efficient method. Microinjection has been used extensively for gene transfer into different cell types. We applied the microinjection technique to the adult rat ventricular cardiac muscle cells (AVC) in primary culture and optimized microinjection parameters and the appropriate cell culture conditions. We also optimized the use of particular agents (i.e. 2,3-butanedione monoxime, verapamil) for the prevention of the cell damage caused by the micropuncture. We obtained the expression of a CMV-beta-galactosidase reporter gene in up to 20% of the injected cells with efficient maintenance of long term cell viability. Under our experimental conditions direct microinjection is a very advantageous technique to transfer macromolecules into living adult cardiac muscle cells and a powerful system to study and manipulate the biochemistry and molecular biology of the cardiac myocyte.
