A fixed spectral background adjustment changed the sign of beta power changes in SEEG from 21 patients
We tested public SEEG from 21 patients with epilepsy in OpenNeuro ds006519 version 1.0.0. We used 35 records and 1750 channel records in marked three-second periods before and after negative motor stimulation. A fixed log-linear fit used 5–7, 35–40, and 60–80 Hz to predict background beta power. The measured and adjusted beta changes had opposite signs in 28.8% of weighted channel records (95% patient interval 25.7% to 31.8%). Both magnitudes were at least 1 dB in 7.2%. The equal-patient mean adjusted change was -0.189 dB (95% interval -0.493 to +0.110; exact sign-flip p=0.245). The primary test did not detect a mean change under patient independence and null sign symmetry. One quadratic sensitivity interval excluded zero without multiple-test adjustment. This is a measurement check in reused clinical data. It does not prove a beta oscillation or a causal motor effect. The package preserves paired epochs, source pins, code, results, and checks.

We used this prior local spectrum result to explain the scope of the broader background test. These reports use the same patients. The present result is not an independent clinical cohort.

We used its five-second signal epochs, source metadata, signal retrieval pins, and extraction helpers. We checked the source hashes and rebuilt all epochs from the original signals. The present question concerns beta change map agreement.
