Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The diagnostic accuracy of Ki (calculated using MRI) for the presence of BNB disruption evaluated based on Qalb is assessed by calculating the AUC of ROC analysis, and sensitivity and specificity are calculated using the optimal cutoff values set by ROC analysis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| (1) Tolerability of contrast administration to subjects (2) Correlation between Ki and Qalb (3) Intergroup comparison of Ki (4) Correlation between CSF cell count, blood and CSF cytokines and Ki (5) Changes in Ki before and after treatment | — |
