CoCrMo nanoparticle induces neurotoxicity mediated via mitochondrial dysfunction: a study model for implant derived nanoparticle effects.
Article in Nanotoxicology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Toxicity associated with elevated levels of cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) nanoparticles in total hip replacement (THR) patients has been a rising concern. Recent investigations demonstrated that these particles can induce polyneuropathy in THR patients. The current study aims to address a detailed molecular investigation of CoCrMo nanoparticle-mediated mitochondrial dynamics using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons (iPSC neurons). Telencephalic neurons from iPSCs were used in this study. A statistically significant dose-dependent reduction in membrane potential and mitochondrial superoxide generation was observed after CoCrMo nanoparticle treatment. The gene expression analysis confirmed that the oxidative-specific genes were significantly upregulated in particle-treated cells compared to untreated cells. When iPSCs were exposed to CoCrMo nanoparticles, there was a significant reduction in the area, perimeter, and length of mitochondria. Live cell imaging (mitochondrial tracking) revealed a significant reduction in mitochondrial movements in the presence of CoCrMo nanoparticles. Further protein expression confirmed increased mitochondrial fission in CoCrMo particle-treated cells by significantly upregulating Drp-1 protein and downregulating Mfn-2. In conclusion, the results show that CoCrMo nanoparticles can significantly alter neuronal mitochondrial dynamics. The disturbance in balance restricts mitochondrial movement, reduces energy production, increases oxidative stress, and can cause subsequent neurodegeneration.
