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 research was conducted to study the increase of blood-tumor barrier (BTB) permeability through paracellular pathway by low-frequency ultrasound (LFU) irradiation in vitro. LFU (frequency=1.0 MHz) was performed to irradiate BTB model from the co-culture of rat C6 glioma cells and rat brain microvascular endothelial cells (RBMECs). The permeability of BTB was measured by transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) and flux of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) assays after LFU irradiation. Western-blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence assays were used to investigate the changes of expressions and distributions of tight junction (TJ)-associated proteins ZO-1, occludin, and claudin-5. The TEER value began to decrease, and the minimum value appeared at 2 h, then gradually returned to the original level at 24 h after LFU irradiation. With time, flux of HRP gradually increased and reached the peak 2 h after LFU irradiation. The expressions of ZO-1, occludin, and claudin-5 in RBMECs decreased, and decreased most significantly at 2 h, then gradually restored to the original level at 24 h. Meanwhile, they were discontinuously distributed in the cellular boundaries after LFU irradiation. In summary, the expression of TJ-associated proteins was down-regulated, TJ was opened, and the permeability of BTB was increased through paracellular pathway by LFU irradiation.
