| Abstract |
The unique component of the cerebral circulation is the so called blood-brain barrier (BBB). The anatomical structures of the BBB consist of the cerebral vascular endothelial cells, the surrounding pericytes, the basal lamina and the perivascular astrocytes. These form the so-called neurovascular unit. Notably, the endothelial cells are interconnected by tight junctions; thus, any solute transport will be transcellular, as opposed to paracellular, in the peripheral circulation. The specific anatomy of the neurovascular unit allows the brain volume to be kept constant even in the context of marked changes in intravascular volume status. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 May 2014.
All research outputs
#7,264,174
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Critical Care
#4,020
of 6,554 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#65,006
of 235,687 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Critical Care
#52
of 146 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 71st percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,554 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.8. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 235,687 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 146 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.
