Simple Method for Evaluation of Planum Temporale Pyramidal Neurons Shrinkage in Postmortem Tissue of Alzheimer Disease Patients

<table>Lenght of pyramidal neurons in cortical layer 3 of the PT subregions in control and AD groups for R and L sides. Length of the cell bodies is in <i>μ</i>m. Abbreviations: R: right, L: left, STG: PT transition to superior temporal gyrus, HG: PT transition to Heschl’s gyri, I: PT transition to insula and SR: PT transition to Sylvian fissure, ctrl: control group, and AD: Alzheimer disease group.</table>
