Figure 1. EZs Consistently Demonstrate Higher Nondirected and Inward Connectivity Than Non-EZs During Consecutive Postimplantation Days.
(A) On postimplantation days 1–7, epileptogenic zones (EZs) demonstrate higher between imaginary coherence (ImCoh) (0.35–0.46 ± 0.58–0.72, mean ± SD) than non-EZs (−0.19 to −0.14 ± 0.20–0.28) (left). (B) Within ImCoh is also higher in EZs (0.24–0.36 ± 0.60–0.73) than non-EZs (−0.13 to −0.055 ± 0.21–0.25) (right). (C) During consecutive postimplantation days, partial directed coherence (PDC) inward strength is higher in EZs (0.27–0.33 ± 0.10–0.16) compared to non-EZs (0.23–0.28 ± 0.10–0.13) (left). (D) PDC outward strength does not differ between EZs (0.23–0.27 ± 0.10–0.13) and non-EZs (0.22–0.27 ± 0.095–0.12) (right). In (A–D), the central line represents the median and the top and bottom box edges indicate the 75th and 25th percentiles, respectively; whiskers demonstrate data extremes and crosses indicate outliers. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01; serial paired t tests with false discovery rate correction.
