Pearson’s correlation analysis of weight changes with functional connectivity estimates between individual stimulation volumes and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), paraventricular nucleus (PVN), and lateral hypothalamic area (LHA). All regions revealed significant correlations with weight changes (BNST: r = 0.420, p = 0.018; PVN: r = –0.405, p = 0.016; LHA: r = −0.384, p = 0.028) that remained significant after correction for multiple comparisons. Of note, two patients experienced an excessive weight gain of over 25% (marked in red circles).
