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 blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective interface between the peripheral circulation and the central nervous system (CNS), crucial for maintaining brain homeostasis. Disruptions to the BBB, such as increased permeability or structural damage, can lead to neurological damage. Mitochondria, the primary energy producers within endothelial cells, play a key role in the function of the BBB by maintaining its integrity and low permeability. This review first outlines the structural components of the BBB, then examines the role of mitochondria in endothelial cells under physiological conditions. We further focus on alterations in mitochondrial function during pathological states, discussing their impact on BBB stability. Briefly, this review explores the involvement of mitochondria in BBB endothelial cells in both physiological processes and the pathological progression of neurological diseases, while proposing potential therapeutic directions for treating CNS disorders.
