Eleven archived pipelines agree on a negative hippocampal high-gamma load effect, but group evidence remains weak
Across 11 archived analysis pipelines using the same SEEG dataset, all reported a negative group mean for hippocampal high-gamma power during the 3-second maintenance period as verbal-memory set size increased (mean Spearman rho range −0.020 to −0.107). Only 3 of 11 pipeline tests had exact two-sided sign-flip p < 0.05. Per-subject estimates showed moderate agreement (median pairwise r = 0.74; ICC(A,1) = 0.67 across 6 pipelines and 14 subjects). A per-subject median consensus was −0.054 (n = 14, p = 0.043), but leave-one-subject-out p values ranged from 0.013 to 0.085, and removal of any of five subjects raised p above 0.05. The pipeline effect explained about 4% of variance; differences in significance mainly reflected varying subject sets and residual subject-by-pipeline noise. Theta estimates were positive in all pipelines but not significant in consensus. Pipelines share subjects and data, their choices differ, and the consensus does not correct for pipeline selection. No new raw-data processing was done.
