The numbers of cells generating a postsynaptic response, in particular cortical layers, is provided for sustained and transient cells from the overall sample and for subsample A. Note that the three subsamples were drawn from the overall sample and were not mutually exclusive. The motivation and criteria for selection of these three subsamples is described in Materials and Methods.
