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 integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), the protective barrier of the brain, is key to maintaining normal microvascular permeability and brain homeostasis. Brain microvascular endothelial cells are primary components of the blood-brain barrier. Transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) is the electrical resistance across a cellular monolayer such as the brain microvascular endothelial cell monolayers. Measurement of TEER is considered a sensitive, reliable, and noninvasive method for evaluating barrier integrity and permeability of an endothelial cell monolayer under in vitro conditions. Measurement of TEER is also helpful for studying various cellular and molecular changes and signaling events that regulate barrier functions in endothelial monolayers. One of the in vitro endothelial cell barrier models that have been commonly used for measuring TEER is the BBB model using human or rodent brain microvascular endothelial cells grown as a monolayer. In this protocol, we describe how TEER is measured in brain microvascular endothelial cell monolayers, to determine blood-brain barrier integrity under in vitro conditions.
