Fig 3. Size of the largest component in brain networks filtered with ECO and statistical comparison between groups.

The size of the largest component is given as a percentage of total nodes. Blue lines stand for median values of the healthy group; red lines are median values of the diseased group. Vertical bars denote lower and upper quartiles. The dashed gray line shows the expected size for the giant component in a Erdos-Renyi random graph with p = 1/n). No statistical between-group differences for any threshold value were reported (Wilcoxon ranks-sum tests, P ≥ 0.01).
