Total spindles | NREM spindles | “Wake” spindles | “Wake” spindles with NREM-like EMG | “Wake” to NREM spindles | NREM to “Wake” spindles | REM spindles | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mean ± SEM | 902.5 ± 14.0 | 805.8 ± 20.8 | 44.0 ± 19.4 | 29.0 ± 9.1 | 4.3 ± 2.4 | 13.8 ± 4.6 | 52.8 ± 9.3 |
% Total spindles ± SEM | 89.3 ± 1.4 | 4.9 ± 2.2 | 3.2 ± 1.1 | 0.5 ± 0.3 | 1.5 ± 0.5 | 0.1 ± 0.01 |
Spindles detected during wakefulness were compared to their temporally aligned EMG signal. NREM-like EMG is defined as values less than three standard deviations above the mean of RMS transformed EMG activity during NREM.
