Concentrations of routine laboratory analyses in five consecutive CSF fractions. Concentrations of A albumin, B Qalb, C total protein, D glucose, E erythrocyte count and F leukocyte count for the five consecutive fractions of CSF: 1: 0–2 mL, 2: 2–4 mL, 3: 4–6 mL, 4: 6–8 mL, 5: 8–10 mL. For all analytes, the bold line shows the median concentration and the grey box the IQR. Concentration gradient for analytes significant at 0.05 level (*), 0.01 level (**) or 0.001 level (***). Qalb ratio of CSF to plasma albumin concentration
