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

The adult heart has a limited ability to regenerate, which is partly due to the structural and metabolic specialization that cardiomyocytes (CMs) acquire during postnatal maturation. In this review, we explore how cytoskeletal remodeling, metabolic reprogramming, and interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM) regulate CM maturation, proliferation, and the potential for regeneration. We describe how the assembly of microtubules, actin filaments, and sarcomeric structures is essential for developing contractile function, but also creates structural barriers that prevent cell division. Recent studies show that disassembling these cytoskeletal components, along with activating signaling pathways such as Hippo-YAP, Wnt, and NRG1/ErbB4, can promote CM dedifferentiation and re-entry into the cell cycle. Metabolic shifts also play a critical role. A return from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis also leads to CM dedifferentiation and proliferation. In addition, changes in ECM composition and mechanical signaling affect cytoskeletal dynamics and regenerative capacity. Understanding how these structural, metabolic, and signaling networks work together opens the door to new approaches for restoring heart function after injury.
