Biological Evaluation of Thermosensitive Hydrogels of Chitosan/Hydrolyzed Collagen/β-GP in an In Vitro Model of Induced Cardiac Ischemia.

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
Ischemic events can culminate in acute myocardial infarction, which is generated by irreversible cardiac lesions that cannot be restored due to the limited regenerative capacity of the heart. Cardiac cell therapy aims to replace injured or necrotic cells with healthy and functional cells. Tissue engineering and cardiovascular regenerative medicine propose therapeutic alternatives using biomaterials that mimic the native extracellular environment and improve cellular and tissue functionality. This investigation evaluates the effect of thermosensitive hydrogels, and murine fetal ventricular cardiomyocytes encapsulated in thermosensitive hydrogels, on the contractile function of cardiomyocyte regeneration during an ischemic event. Chitosan and hydrolyzed collagen thermosensitive hydrogels were developed, and they were physically and chemically characterized. Likewise, their biocompatibility was evaluated through cytotoxicity assays by MTT, LDH, and their hemolytic capacity. The hydrogels, and cells inside the hydrogels, were used as an intervention for primary cardiomyocytes under hypoxic conditions to determine the restoration of the contractile capacity by measuring intracellular calcium levels and the expressions of binding proteins, such as a-actinin and connexin 43. These results evidence the potential of natural thermosensitive hydrogels to restore the bioelectrical functionality of ischemic cardiomyocytes.
