Assessing the dose of regadenoson required to transiently alter blood-brain barrier integrity in patients with infiltrating gliomas.

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
Background: The blood-brain barrier (BBB) severely limits the delivery of therapeutic agents to the brain. Regadenoson, a Food and Drug Administration-approved adenosine A2 agonist, transiently increases BBB permeability in rodents to a 70 kDa dextran. This multi-institutional, NIH-funded study examined regadenoson's ability to transiently alter BBB permeability in patients with gliomas. Methods: Adults with supratentorial gliomas at low risk for regadenoson complications were treated with 1 of the 7 dose levels known to be safe in humans. Successful BBB disruption was defined as a 10-fold increase in vascular permeability ( Results: Seven patients <45 years old with low-grade gliomas were accrued before the study was prematurely closed. Regadenoson was well tolerated. Following regadenoson, Conclusions: No dose of regadenoson significantly elevated Clinical Trial Registration: NCI Protocol #: Adult brain tumor consortium 1804, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:
