Hemispheric dominance ratio for different errors.

<p>The graph shows the hemispheric dominance ratio (HDR; quotient of the error rate for the left and right hemisphere) as a box plot for the different error types. A hemispheric dominance ratio >1 means left-sided dominance, and <1 means right-sided language dominance.</p

Tumor location.

<p>Detailed description of main tumor location and further affected gyri or fibre tracts (FT) by displacement or infiltration for male (M) and female (F) patients. Resting motor threshold (RMT) is also provided. Abbreviations: AA  =  anaplastic astrocytoma WHO grade III, GBM  =  glioblastoma WHO grade IV, C  =  cavernoma, DA  =  diffuse astrocytoma WHO grade II.</p

Hemispheric dominance ratio.

<p>Summary of the hemispheric dominance ratio as a quotient of the error rate (fraction of the absolute number of errors and number of stimulations per region) for the corresponding left and right CPS regions separated in the different error types. A hemispheric dominance ratio >1 means left-sided dominance, and <1 means right-sided language dominance. n.s.  =  statistically not significant (p>0.05).</p

Mapping parameters.

<p>Stimulation parameters used in the study including group and pain score, according to the visual analogue scale (VAS). RMT  =  resting motor threshold (stimulator output); Hz  =  stimulation train frequency; # pulses  =  number of pulses in train; int %  =  stimulation intensity (of maximum stimulator output). The designation n.s.  =  statistically not significant (p>0.05).</p

<p>Anatomical names and abbreviations are according to Corina et al. 2005.</p

Summary of naming errors.

<p>Summary of naming errors in [%] induced by rTMS: error ratios of each error type in the four tested language tasks. Differences among distribution of error rates per stimulation point in different tasks were tested using Friedman’s test.</p><p>Summary of naming errors.</p
