Human NREM Sleep Promotes Brain-Wide Vasomotor and Respiratory Pulsations
The physiological underpinnings of the necessity of sleep remain uncertain. Recent evidence suggests that sleep increases the convection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and promotes the export of interstitial solutes, thus providing a framework to explain ...
