Response latencies of cortical and VPL thalamic neurones to medial nerve and medial lemniscus stimuli during active and silent network states
| Field | Cortical neurones | Thalamic neurones | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| active (n = 25) | silent (n = 25) | active (n = 73) | silent (n = 73) | active (n = 21) | silent (n = 21) | |
| Mean median nerve | 12.8 ± 0.8 | 17.3 ± 0.9 | 11.4 ± 1.7 | 13.7 ± 2.5 | 7.6 ± 0.3 | 7.6 ± 0.2 |
| Median nerve range | 12.2–14.1 | 15.5–21.2 | 9.0–17.2 | 9.6–20.5 | 7.2–8.0 | 7.3–7.9 |
| Medial lemniscus mean | 6.7 ± 1.1 | — | 5.2 ± 1.8 | 8.3 ± 2.1 (n = 7) | 0.71 ± 0.07 | 0.71 ± 0.07 |
| Medial lemniscus range | 4.5–7.7 | — | −2.7–7.8 | 3.5–11.2 (n = 7) | 0.6–0.9 | 0.6–0.9 |
The first maximum of depth-negativity was used to calculate the latency of field potential responses. The onset of synaptic response was used to calculate the latency of synaptic responses.
