Table 3.
Summary data for spontaneous discharge activity: Mean, standard deviation (SD) and number of neurons (n) are presented for several discharge metrics including: Recording duration (Duration, s), total number of spikes (Spikes), discharge rate (Rate, sp/s), inter-spike interval (Interval, ms), interval coefficient of variation (CVi), burst index (BI), burst rate, (bursts/minute). Means do not include cells evidencing modulation (i.e., entrainment) by cardiac or ventilation cycles.
