Enhanced brain parcellation via abnormality inpainting for neuroimage-based consciousness evaluation of hydrocephalus patients by lumbar drainage

Brain Informatics

Table 1 Demographic and clinical information of all the recruited patients with secondary mild hydrocephalus

Category	Favorable	Unfavorable	p value
Age (year): mean ± std	47.53 ± 13.48	45.09 ± 14.61	0.6547
Gender: male/female	14/3	7/4	0.2639
CRS-R scores before LCFD: mean ± std	11.71 ± 6.00	16.27 ± 7.99	0.0960
CRS-R scores after LCFD: mean ± std	15.82 ± 5.03	16.27 ± 7.99	0.8560

The patients were classified into two categories: “favorable” indicates patients whose CRS-R scores increased after LCFD and whose consciousness levels improved after LCFD, and “unfavorable” indicates patients whose CRS-R scores did not improve after LCFD. For more information about the CRS-R scores and the diagnosis of the states of consciousness, see Additional file 1: Table S1
