Effect of propionic and methylmalonic acids on the high molecular weight neurofilament subunit (NF-H) in rat cerebral cortex.

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
Propionic and methylmalonic acidemias are inherited neurometabolic disorders biochemically characterized by tissue accumulation of propionic (PA) and methylmalonic (MMA) acids, respectively. Neurofilaments (NF) are important cytoskeletal proteins and phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of NF is important to stabilize the cytoskeleton. We investigated the effects of PA and MMA on the high molecular weight neurofilament subunit associated with the cytoskeletal fraction of rat cerebral cortex along development. Cortical slices from 9- to 60-day-old rats were incubated with 2.5 mM PA or MMA. The cytoskeletal fraction was extracted and the immunoreactivity for phosphorylated or total NF-H was analyzed by immunoblotting using specific antibodies. Results showed that treatment of tissue slices with the acids induced an increased Triton-insoluble phosphorylated NF-H immunoreactivity in up to 17-day-old rats. Furthermore, treatments significantly increased the total amount of NF-H in 12-day-old rats. These findings indicate that PA and MMA alter the dynamic regulation of NF-H assembly in the cytoskeletal fraction.
