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

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown and the associated microvascular hyperpermeability are hallmark features of several neurological disorders, including traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, there is no viable therapeutic strategy to rescue BBB function. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP1) has been considered to be beneficial for vascular integrity, but the molecular mechanisms underlying the functions of TIMP1 remain elusive. Here, we report that TIMP1 executes a protective role on neuroprotective function
