Ventricular volume in relation to lumbar CSF levels of amyloid-β 1–42, tau and phosphorylated tau in iNPH, is there a dilution effect?

Abstract Background Levels of the biomarkers amyloid-β 1–42 (Aβ42), tau and phosphorylated tau (p-tau) are decreased in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). The mechanism behind this is unknown, but one potential explanation is dilution by e...
