Unchain my heart: the scientific foundations of cardiac repair

Open access
Dimmeler, Stefanie, Zeiher, Andreas M., Schneider, Michael D.·2005·Journal of Clinical Investigation

Abstract

In humans, the biological limitations to cardiac regenerative growth create both a clinical imperative--to offset cell death in acute ischemic injury and chronic heart failure--and a clinical opportunity; that is, for using cells, genes, and proteins to rescue cardiac muscle cell number or in other ways promote more efficacious cardiac repair. Recent experimental studies and early-phase clinical trials lend credence to the visionary goal of enhancing cardiac repair as an achievable therapeutic target.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
