Fig. 4: PLE and LZC assessment in the CLIS dataset.

From: Altered brain dynamics index levels of arousal in complete locked-in syndrome

Fig. 4

The mean distribution of PLE (a) and LZC (c) and their respective coefficients of variation (b, d) are depicted using violin plots and box plots for both the CLIS condition and healthy controls. A significant increase for mPLE (with a uniform decrease for cvPLE) and a significant decrease for mLZC (with an increase for cvLZC) are observed for CLIS patients compared to HC through non-repeated measures test. The PSD with standard error mean (e) of the 10 CLIS participants showed a steep overall decline compared to HC, with higher values in slow frequencies (1–8 Hz), a slowing of alpha peaks in the delta-theta range, and a power slope the higher frequencies (10–40 Hz). Source data are provided in Supplementary Data 1.
