[HTML][HTML] The spectral exponent of the resting EEG indexes the presence of consciousness during unresponsiveness induced by propofol, xenon, and ketamine
Despite the absence of responsiveness during anesthesia, conscious experience may
persist. However, reliable, easily acquirable and interpretable neurophysiological markers of …

Sleep and the single neuron: the role of global slow oscillations in individual cell rest
VV Vyazovskiy, KD Harris - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2013 - nature.com
Sleep is universal in animals, but its specific functions remain elusive. We propose that
sleep's primary function is to allow individual neurons to perform prophylactic cellular …
