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

Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) represent a robust platform for modelling inherited cardiac disorders. Comparative analysis of ion channel activity in patient-specific and isogenic control lines provides critical insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying channelopathies and arrhythmias. Atrial-specific hiPSC-CMs (hiPSC-aCMs) exhibit distinct electrophysiological properties governed by unique ion channel expression profiles, underscoring the need for optimized methodologies to record atrial ionic currents accurately. Here, we characterized the electrophysiological features of hiPSC-aCMs using the Nanion Patchliner automated patch-clamp system. An optimized cell dissociation protocol was developed to enhance cell integrity and seal formation, while tailored intra- and extracellular solutions were employed to isolate specific ionic currents. Using this approach, we reliably recorded major atrial currents, including the sodium current (I
