Why does sleep slow-wave activity increase after extended wake? Assessing the effects of increased cortical firing during wake and sleep
During non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, cortical neurons alternate between ON periods of firing and OFF periods of silence. This bi-stability, which is largely synchronous across neurons, is reflected in the EEG as slow waves. Slow-wave activity (SWA) increases with wake duration and declines ho...
