Subnetwork identified using network‐based statistics (NBS) with a 3.45 primary threshold, 5,000 random permutations, and a p < .05 significance level (family‐wise error rate [FWER]‐corrected) on the connection strengths of the complete, un‐thresholded adjacency matrices of patients with right‐hemispheric focal epilepsy (RPs) and patients with left‐hemispheric focal epilepsy (LPs) in the theta band. The network was primarily composed of intra‐hemispheric connections within the right hemisphere (27 were right intra‐hemispheric and 8 interhemispheric) and had 28 nodes located in the right hemisphere (3 were frontal, 11 temporal, 4 parietal, 3 insular, 1 limbic, 3 occipital, 1 basal ganglia, and 2 thalamus) and 5 nodes located in the left hemisphere (2 were frontal and 3 occipital). The most significant connections were intra‐hemispheric connections in the right hemisphere between two nodes in the inferior temporal gyrus (ITG) (t = 4.47), a node in the ITG and a node in the inferior parietal lobule (IPL) (t = 4.20), a node in the fusiform gyrus (FG) and a node in the IPL (t = 4.18), a node in the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and a node in the basal ganglia (BG) (t = 4.09), and a node in the ITG and a node in the IPL (t = 4.00)
