Figure 2. Network Integration (A) and Specialization (B) in Bilinguals and Monolinguals With L-TLE vs R-TLE.

Figure 2

The effect of bilingualism on network organization was dependent on side of seizure focus such that bilingual LTLE showed increased network organization relative to monolingual LTLE. Plotted are AUC of path length and transitivity separately by side of seizure focus (L- vs R-TLE) and language status (bilingual vs monolingual). Boxplot denotes the median (bold bar), first and third quartiles (box limits), and ±1.5 times the interquartile range (whiskers). Bilingual and monolingual TLEs are coded as circles and triangles, respectively. AUC = area under the curve; LTLE = left TLE; RTLE = right TLE; TLE = temporal lobe epilepsy.
