Figure 4

Heatmap of network pairs that show individual differences in controls and alterations to the stable network pairs in patients. Network pairs that indicate individual differences between controls are widespread and variable throughout the entire hemisphere in both (a–b, gray) positive and (c–d, gray) negative FC of either hemisphere. At most, there are 2/9 controls for whom these differences overlap at any given network pair. There are also network pairs that were stable among controls (black cells under diagonal). Differences between patients and controls in (a–b, colored) positive and in (c–d, colored) negative FC are only considered for stable network pairs where there is no variability in controls. Patient data are shown for patients with right or left resection (networks are from contralesional left or right hemisphere, respectively). Right resection patients showed consistent deviation from control mean in only two network pairs (blue cells, panel c: Posterior Cingulate cortex to Somatosensory/Motor cortex and Posterior Cingulate cortex to Posterior opercular cortex).
