CSF Osmolality in shunt responsive versus non-responsive iNPH patients.aThe osmolality of ventricular CSF in iNPH patients responsive to shunt surgery (n = 10) versus those that were non-responders (n = 10).bThe osmolality of lumbar CSF in iNPH patients responsive to shunt surgery (n = 10) versus those that were non-responders (n = 10). The data were evaluated for statistical significance with the Mann–Whitney test.cThe osmolality of iNPH patient lumbar CSF as a function of the outflow resistance measured during diagnostic workup, n = 10 of each patient group.NSnot significant
