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

Dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) has been increasingly recognised as a critical early event in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathophysiology. Central to this mechanism is the impaired function of brain endothelial cells (BECs), the primary structural constituents of the BBB, the study of which is imperative for understanding AD pathophysiology. However, the published methods to isolate BECs are time-consuming and have a low success rate. Here, we developed a rapid and streamlined protocol for BEC isolation without using transgenic reporters, flow cytometry, and magnetic beads, which are essential for existing methods. Using this novel protocol, we isolated high-purity BECs from cell clusters of cortical microvessels from wild-type and APP
