Spatial Extent of the Auditory Activation

Overall difference (ANOVA)

Control Drug Difference Lower CL Upper CL p-Value

Saline Dexmedetomidine 272 −674 1219 0.893

Saline Propofol 94 −853 1040 0.995

Drug comparison of change in cluster size (spatial extent of auditory activation) within the auditory cortex. The difference column is calculated by subtracting the cluster size change (sedation minus baseline) of each drug (dexmedetomidine, midazolam, propofol) from the cluster size change (repeat minus baseline) in the saline control group.
