  1. Paired analysis of subgroups preictal (< 36 h before migraine pain attack), ictal and postictal (< 36 h after migraine pain attack). Beta-ERD response is the ratio between mean power in the interval from 1 to 3 s after movement onset and mean power in the interval − 3 to −1 s before movement onset (baseline). Ratios were LN-transformed before statistical analysis. Factors used were side (C3 vs C4 electrode), SM/M (sensorimotor vs motor) and cyclic phase (preictal-interictal, ictal-interictal and postictal-interictal)
