REF (n = 9) IIH (n = 8) Significance
Normal mitochondria
Number of normal mitochondria per astrocytic endfoot process (n) 18.4 ± 9.4 7.0 ± 4.5 t(12) = 2.901, p = 0.013
Area of normal mitochondria per endfoot processes (nm2) 132,672 ± 48,824 116,204 ± 51,446 t(12) = 0.614, p = 0.550
Pathological mitochondria
Number of pathological mitochondria per astrocytic endfoot process (n) 0.43 ± 0.79 3.14 ± 3.08 t(12) = 2.260, p = 0.043
Area of pathological mitochondria per endfoot processes (nm2) 28,903 ± 49,387 58,313 ± 46,878 t(12) = 1.143, p = 0.275

Data presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD). Significant differences between continuous variables were determined by independent samples t test.
