Fig 2. — Quantitative assessment for LP/LD and shunt response. A, Comparison between the improvement in TUG scores after LP/LD (x-axis) and after shunt surgery (y-axis). Thirty-one patients show better improvement after shunt surgery than after LP/LD, whereas 5 patients show better improvement after LP/LD than after shunt surgery. B, Comparison between the improvement in the Tinetti score “deficit” after LP/LD (x-axis) and after shunt surgery (y-axis). Patients with a Tinetti score of 28 at baseline and 2 outliers (−1.4, 0.6) and (−1, −2) are not shown on this graph. Thirty-one patients show better improvement after shunt surgery than after LP/LD, whereas 9 patients show better improvement after LP/LD than after shunt surgery. C, Changes in the MMSE score after shunt surgery. Blue lines represent patients who improved, and red lines represent patients who worsened by ≥3 points in the MMSE test after shunt surgery.
