^*Significant at P < 0.05 corrected, when tested against the global null hypothesis (see the “Methods” section).

^†Areas showing a postsurgical reduction in the difference between conjoint activation in response to high-ED and low-ED foods. Italic values (in parentheses) indicate cluster size when threshold at P < 0.005 was applied, testing against the global null hypothesis. Among these clusters, those larger than 135 voxels were deemed significant at P < 0.05 corrected.

k indicates number of voxels within each cluster.
