Consciousness and Anesthesia
2008
Science
Consciousness vanishes when anesthetics produce functional disconnection in this posterior complex, interrupting cortical communication and causing a loss of integration; or when they lead to bistable, ...
Although anesthesia undoubtedly induces unresponsiveness and amnesia, the extent to which it causes unconsciousness is harder to establish. ...

Neurophysiological support of consciousness during waking and sleep
1999
Progress in Neurobiology
During slow wave sleep, all these brain stem in¯uences sustaining the cortical state decrease and transiently disappear just prior to onset of REM sleep. ...
Therefore, it is understandable that, during waking, mental activity is re¯ective and rational, and that psychological content is less intense during slow wave sleep. ...
Rossi et al. (1965) showed that the cortical recovery cycle of the visual cortex tested by radiation stimulation is shorter during slow wave sleep than during waking and still slightly shorter during ...

Human Sleep Neurophysiology
2006
Journal of Sleep Research
The human sleep EEG is characterised by the occurrence of distinct oscillatory events such as delta waves, sleep spindles, and alpha activity. ...
The periodicity in the occurrence of oscillatory events was not affected by sleep deprivation. ...
We also examined whether sleep-deprivation induced changes in A1AR binding and the EEG are attenuated by 300 mg slow-release caffeine. ...

The dreaming sleep stage: A new neurobiological model of schizophrenia?
2006
Neuroscience
Moreover, in both states, there is dorsolateral prefrontal deactivation as shown by the decrease of blood flow. ...
Consequently, rapid eye movement sleep could become a useful new neurobiological model of this mental disease since more functional than current rat models using stimulation, lesion or drugs. ...
This cortical deactivation also cooperates to induce the glutamate deficit in nucleus accumbens (Grace, 2000) . ...

Enhancement of sleep slow waves: underlying mechanisms and practical consequences
2014
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience
Here we first review the evidence that it is possible to enhance sleep slow waves in humans using transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial magnetic stimulation. ...
Finally, we discuss automated algorithms that read the EEG and, in real-time, adjust the stimulation parameters in a closed-loop manner to obtain an increase in sleep slow waves and avoid undesirable arousals ...
