From: Neurofilament light chain (Nf-L) in cerebrospinal fluid and serum as a potential biomarker in the differential diagnosis of neurological diseases in cattle

Figure 13

Comparison between calves (age, < 2 months) with anomaly, degenerative disorder, and infectious/inflammatory disease of the CNS. The CSF Nf-L concentrations were significantly higher in calves with a neurodegenerative disorder or CNS infection than in those with a CNS anomaly. There were no significant differences in calves with a CNS infection and those with a neurodegenerative disorder. The median, IQR, maximum and minimum are shown. Kruskal–Wallis rank sum test with pairwise comparison was used, and the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure applied to adjust the p-values. Asterisks (*) denote the level of statistical significance: ** p < 0.01. ns denotes not significant. CSF cerebrospinal fluid, CNS central nervous system, IQR interquartile range, Nf-L neurofilament light chain.
