Differences in SL values between obese and control subjects in the delta band.

<p>Coloring indicates a significant higher local SL value for the obese compared to the control group; color intensity keeps scale with the significance level of the differences found. Arrows indicate significant higher interhemispheric and long distance SL values for obese compared to control subjects. Here, the thickness of the arrow represents the significance level.</p

Location of the magnetoencephalographic sensors and their grouping into different sectors.

Synchronization values in seven frequency bands in obese and control subjects.

<p>Lines on top of the bars represent standard deviations of the means shown. An asterisk indicates a certain significance level in the difference found between the two research groups (Mann-Whitney U).</p
