Correlation analyses for QAlb (A) and CSF total protein (B), respectively, and days since onset of the neurological symptoms in the total cohort and in the B/SC subgroup. Although a mildly significant correlation was found for both parameters, it should be noted that both parameters were still pathologically altered > 14 and even > 30 days after onset of the neurological symptoms in a subset of cases (see Results section and Table 1 for details).
