Perturbed synaptic adhesion molecules signaling in neurodevelopmental disorders: The impact of metal neurotoxicity.
Review in Ibrain, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Synaptic adhesion molecules (SAMs) are glycoproteins localized on neuronal surfaces, primarily expressed at synaptic plasma membranes. SAMs play a role in inducing formation, maturation, plasticity, and assembly of synaptic connections, which are vital for normal neurodevelopment. SAMs link the pre- and post-synaptic compartments and assist in inter-synaptic signaling and recognition. An increasing variety of SAMs, including neurexins and neuroligins, immunoglobulin (Ig) domain proteins-like synaptic cell adhesion molecule (SynCAM) and neural cell adhesion molecule, receptor phosphotyrosine kinases and phosphatases, as well as various leucine-rich repeat proteins, have been identified. Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), like autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, intellectual disabilities, and cerebral palsy, have been associated with altered SAMs. NDDs are characterized by a spectrum of challenges stemming from abnormal brain development. The etiology of these disorders involves the interaction between genes and environmental factors, such as metals. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the literature, highlighting the role of SAMs in NDDs and potential mechanisms via which neurotoxic metals may contribute to the pathogenesis of NDDs that could involve perturbations in SAMs. Understanding these interconnections will assist in identifying therapeutic targets for these disorders.
