Slow-oscillation characteristics during afternoon nap closed-loop stimulation (experiment 1)
| Stim | Sham | p Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of SOs | 166.67 (27.76) | 154.58 (17.65) | 0.52 |
| SO amplitude (μV) | 147.36 (13.04) | 143.17 (9.89) | 0.40 |
| SO slope (μV/s) | 278.68 (26.09) | 275.92 (20.30) | 0.83 |
| Duration (s) | 1.13 (0.01) | 1.15 (0.01) | 0.04 |
Mean ± SEM number of slow oscillations (identified off-line; see Materials and Methods) during the entire recording, amplitude (negative half-wave-to-peak), slope, and duration between stim and sham conditions. Duration of SO in the stimulation condition was significantly shorter compared with the sham condition, suggesting that the induced SO oscillation peaked at a higher frequency compared with the sham condition (∼1 Hz)
