Effect of sleep deprivation on CSD propagation speed and propagation failure

Group	n	Propagation speed (mm/min)	Propagation Failure (%)
Control	30	3.0 ± 0.4	31 ± 12
6 h sleep deprivation	17	3.0 ± 0.5	32 ± 13
12 h sleep deprivation	11	3.0 ± 0.3	30 ± 12

Acute sleep deprivation did not affect propagation speed or propagation failure of CSD in rats. Control groups for 6 h and 12 h sleep deprivation were pooled for statistical analysis, as no significant difference was found between the two control groups

Measurements were made of the first CSD recorded after topical KCl application

Values are average ± SD
