The Treatment of Psychophysiologic Insomnia with Biofeedback: A Replication Study [abs.]
by Hauri PJ, Percy L, Hellekson C, Hartmann E, Russ D

ABSTRACT
To replicate a previous study, 16 psychophysiological insomniacs were randomly assigned to either Theta feedback or sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) feedback.

EEG Slow (~1 Hz) Waves Are Associated With Nonstationarity of Thalamo-Cortical Sensory Processing in the Sleeping Human
by Massimini M, Rosanova M, Mariotti M

ABSTRACT
Intracellular studies reveal that, during slow wave sleep (SWS), the entire cortical network can swing rhythmically between extremely different microstates, ranging from wakefulness-like network activation to functional disconnection in the space of a few hundred milliseconds.


DC-EEG Discloses Prominent, Very Slow Activity Patterns During Sleep in Preterm Infants [abs.]
by Vanhatalo S, Tallgren P, Andersson S, Sainio K, Voipio J, Kaila K

ABSTRACT
The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that the immature human brain exhibits slow electrical activity that is not detected by conventional (i.e. high-pass filtered) electroencephalography (EEG).
