“The presence of ISs in Hem 2 was associated with a change of the statistics of the slow-wave oscillations in Hem 1; in particular, as shown in Fig. 3c,d, the frequency of up states increased from 0.70 ± 0.06 Hz to 0.81 ± 0.06 Hz (paired t-test, n = 8, p = 0.007), while their duration decreased from 0.74 ± 0.04 s to 0.64 ± 0.03 s (paired t-test, n = 8, p = 0.003)”.

“The presence of ISs in Hem 2 was associated with a change of the statistics of the slow-wave oscillations in Hem 1; in particular, as shown in Fig. 3c,d, the frequency of up states increased from 0.57 ± 0.03 Hz to 0.64 ± 0.02 Hz (paired t-test, n = 8, p = 0.004), while their duration decreased from 0.74 ± 0.04 s to 0.64 ± 0.03 s (paired t-test, n = 8, p = 0.003)”.
