Comparison of rsEEG power modulation by active and sham TBS protocols
We contrasted neuromodulatory effects between TBS protocols. For this purpose, we conducted separate analyses for each visit and frequency band using power ratios (post-TBS/pre-TBS). The results of LMMs of relative power in ROI Left yielded no significant main effect of the factor Protocol or the Protocol x Time interaction (all F-values < 2.50, all p-values > 0.05 (corr.), partial eta < 0.05, Supplementary table S9) in alpha and beta 1 frequency bands in V1 and V2. These results demonstrate that there were no significant differences between neuromodulatory effects on relative power produced by active and sham TBS protocols in the targeted hemisphere. The results of LMMs of relative power in ROI Right and absolute power yielded a significant main effect of factor Protocol which did not survive correction for multiple comparisons (see Supplementary material).
