Optimization and Technical Considerations for the Dye-Exclusion Protocol Used to Assess Blood-Brain Barrier Integrity in Adult
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a multicellular construct that regulates the diffusion and transport of metabolites, ions, toxins, and inflammatory mediators into and out of the central nervous system (CNS). Its integrity is essential for proper brain physiology, and its breakdown has been shown to contribute to neurological dysfunction. The BBB in vertebrates exists primarily through the coordination between endothelial cells, pericytes, and astrocytes, while invertebrates, which lack a vascularized circulatory system, typically have a barrier composed of glial cells that separate the CNS from humoral fluids. Notably, the invertebrate barrier is molecularly and functionally analogous to the vertebrate BBB, and the fruit fly,
