Graph-theoretic measures

We measured the brain functional network topologies using the Brain

Connectivity Toolbox (http://www.brain-connectivity-toolbox.net) 1. We evaluated the following global network measures: 1) overall clustering coefficient, 3) shortest path length, and 5) small-worldness. Nodal strength were also calculated for each node. The definition and brief interpretation of these metrics is described below

Small-world properties

Small-world properties were originally proposed by Watts and Strogatz 2.

Here, we investigated small-world properties of structural connectivity

w network. The weighted clustering coefficient of node i , Ci , which expresses the likelihood that the neighbourhoods of node i are connected 3, is defined

1/ 3 (w ijw ihw jh ) as follows: w j,hN , where wij is the weight between nodes i Ci  ki (ki 1)

and j in the network, and ki is the degree of node i . The clustering

2 w coefficient is zero, Ci  0, if the nodes are isolated or with just one

w connection. The overall clustering coefficient, Cnet , was computed as the

1 w C w  C w average of Ci across all nodes in the network: net  i , extent N iN measure of the local interconnectivity or cliquishness of the network 2.

The path length between nodes i and j was defined as the sum of the edge lengths along the path, where each edge’s length was obtained by computing

the reciprocal of the edge weight, 1/ wij . The shortest path length Lij between nodes i and j was defined as the length of the path with the shortest length

w between the two nodes. The weight characteristic shortest path length Lnet of a network was measured by a “harmonic mean” length between pairs 4, to overcome the problem of possibly disconnected network components.

w Formally, Lnet is the reciprocal of the average of the reciprocals:

3 w 1 Lnet  N N 1  1 , where N is the number of nodes. The weight N(N 1) i1 ji Lij characteristic shortest path length quantifies the ability for information propagation in parallel.

w w To examine small-world properties related to Cnet and Lnet , brain networks were compared to random networks. A small-world network has similar path

w w length but higher clustering than a random network, that is   Cnet / Crandom 1,

w w 2   Lnet / Lrandom  1 . These two conditions can also be summarized into a scalar quantitative measurement, the small-worldness,    /  , that is typically larger than one in case of small-world organization . For each individual brain network a set of 100 comparable random networks with similar degree sequence and symmetric adjacency matrix were formed, and

w w Crandom and Lrandom were defined as the average weighted clustering coefficient and weighted path length.

Nodal characteristics analysis

w Three nodal topological characteristics, including nodal strength ( Si ). The

4 w strength ( Si ) was computed as the sum of the weights of all the connections

w w Si  wij of node i , that is  . The Si quantifies the extent to which a node is jN

1 w relevant to the graph . The total connection strength Snet of the network was

1 w S w  S w computed as the sum of Si for all nodes N in the network: net  i . N iN

Multivariate pattern analysis

A multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) was adopted to predict the surgical outcomes. This approach employs a set of machine learning-based algorithms allowing multivariate individual-level prediction of group membership on high dimensional imaging data. Specifically, linear support vector machine (SVM), from the LIBSVM machine learning library, was used here (www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm). Graph measures showing significant between-group difference preoperatively were used as measure-of-interest for the prediction. A linear decision boundary in this high dimensional space was defined by a hyperplane that separated the individual outcome according to a class label (i.e., SF vs. NSF).

Main effect in ANOVA

Small-worldness did not show significant group and treatment main effect.

Connectivity feature (edge) with significant treatment main effect were predominantly in left hemisphere connecting: ITG (temporooccipital part) and

LOC (inferior division) (T = -4.07, P = 0.1 × 10-3), CO cortex and SFG (T =

-4.12, P = 0.1 × 10-3)/IFG (pars triangularis [T = 3.65, P = 0.4 × 10-3], pars opercularis [T = 3.62, P = 0.4 × 10-3]), Frontal Pole and thalamus (T = 4.10, P

= 0.1 × 10-3)/caudate (T = 3.75, P = 0.3 × 10-3)/pallidum (T = 4.04, P = 0.1 ×

10-3), SFG and insular (T = -4.93, P = 0.9 × 10-5)/putamen (T = -3.98, P = 0.2 ×

10-3)/pallidum (T = -3.89, P = 0.2 × 10-3)/ precentral gyrus (T = 3.57, P = 0.5 ×

10-3), IFG (pars triangularis) and insular (T = 3.62, P = 0.4 × 10-3)/FO cortex (T

= -4.26, P = 0.7 × 10-4), insular and FO cortex (T = 5.40, P = 0.2 × 10-

5)/thalamus (T = 4.96, P = 0.8 × 10-5)/pallidum (T = 3.62, P = 0.4 × 10-3), caudate and putamen (T = -4.42, P = 0.4 × 10-4). Right cuneal cortex and right lingual gyrus also showed significant treatment main effect (T = -3.70, P = 0.3

× 10-3) (Figure e-1, table e-2).

Nodal strength (Si) showed significant group main effect in bilateral hemispheres: left CO cortex (T = 2.90, P = 0.3 × 10-2), left subcallosal cortex

(T = 2.64, P = 0.6 × 10-2), right postcentral gyrus (T = 2.93, P = 0.3 × 10-2), right MTG (anterior part) (T = 2.97, P = 0.3 × 10 -2), right MTG (posterior part)

7 (T = 2.70, P = 0.5 × 10-2), right TP (T = 2.57, P = 0.7 × 10-2) (Figure e-2), while the treatment main effect exclusively in left hemisphere similar to connectivity feature: SPL (T = 2.82, P = 0.4 × 10-2), lateral occipital cortex (superior division) (T = 2.70, P = 0.5 × 10-2), FP (T = 2.83, P = 0.4 × 10-2), and IFG (pars triangularis) (T = 4.01, P = 0.1 × 10-3) (Figure e-2, table e-3, and e-4).

Multivariate pattern analysis

All the six nodes with significant group main effect showed between-group difference preoperatively, while sigma and edges did not. Thus, nodal strength in these nodes were adopted to distinguish SF and NSF patients based on preoperative data. The MVPA indicated a good discrimination for the NSF patients: area under receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.80, accuracy =

0.79, sensitivity = 0.75, specificity = 0.82.
