Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cardiovascular diseases account for ~40% of global deaths annually. This situation has revealed the urgent need for the investigation and development of corresponding drugs for pathogenesis due to the complexity of research methods and detection techniques. An in vitro cardiomyocyte model is commonly used for cardiac drug screening and disease modeling since it can respond to microphysiological environmental variations through mechanoelectric feedback. Microfluidic platforms are capable of accurate fluid control and integration with analysis and detection techniques. Therefore, various microfluidic platforms (i.e., heart-on-a-chip) have been applied for the reconstruction of the physiological environment and detection of signals from cardiomyocytes. They have demonstrated advantages in mimicking the cardiovascular structure and function in vitro and in monitoring electromechanical signals. This review presents a summary of the methods and technologies used to monitor the contractility and electrophysiological signals of cardiomyocytes within microfluidic platforms. Then, applications in common cardiac drug screening and cardiovascular disease modeling are presented, followed by design strategies for enhancing physiology studies. Finally, we discuss prospects in the tissue engineering and sensing techniques of microfluidic platforms.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
