Density of WMN. (A) Boxplot showing quantitative results of all cases using WSA automated, WSA manual, SA and stereology. Horizontal line within box = median; top of the box = 75th percentile; bottom of box = 25th percentile; whiskers = 1.5x height of the box or maximum/minimum values. Tabulated results were expressed as cells/mm² or cells/mm³ after Abercrombie’s correction ± standard error of means (SE). (B) Boxplot showing significantly higher densities of WMN in epilepsy cases compared to controls using all methods. ^The methodology in stereology was a 3D cell counting method, so correction factors were not applied.
