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) serves as a physical barrier of the central nervous system, characterized by selective permeability and immune isolation. It plays a critical role in transporting essential nutrients for normal neuronal metabolism while preventing the entry of toxic substances into the brain. Following acute ischemic stroke, the integrity of the BBB is compromised, leading to extensive T-cell infiltration into the brain. These infiltrating T cells influence BBB permeability and can exert either protective or detrimental effects on brain tissue. Current research has largely focused on the subset-specific regulation of T cells after their infiltration or on inhibiting T-cell migration into the brain during ischemic stroke. However, a systematic understanding of the routes and mechanisms underlying T-cell trafficking across the BBB in this context remains limited. In this review, we systematically examine the functional alterations of the BBB induced by different CD4
