Increased Sodium, Potassium, and Chloride only in PHH. A chart showing increased CSF Na+ concentration in PHH (n = 7) compared to control (n = 12), low grade IVH (n = 7), and high grade IVH (n = 7) (p =  < 0.0001, 0.0017, 0.0013 respectively; Tukey’s post-test ANOVA). B chart showing increased CSF K+ concentration in PHH (n = 5) compared to control (n = 13), low grade IVH (n = 8), and high grade IVH (n = 7) (p = 0.0002, 0.0023, 0.0037 respectively; Tukey’s post-test ANOVA). C chart showing increased CSF Cl− concentration in PHH (n = 7) compared to control (n = 13), low grade IVH (n = 6), and high grade IVH (n = 7) (p = 0.012, 0.023, 0.015 respectively; Tukey’s post-test ANOVA). D chart showing no change in serum sodium across all the groups (ANOVA summary p-value = 0.89) (n = 13 control, 9 LGIVH, 7 HGIVH, and 11 PHH). E chart showing no change in serum potassium across all the groups (ANOVA summary p-value = 0.57) (n = 13 control, 9 LGIVH, 7 HGIVH, and 11 PHH). F chart showing no change in serum chloride across all the groups (ANOVA summary p-value = 0.30) (n = 13 control, 9 LGIVH, 6 HGIVH, and 11 PHH)
