Case Report: non-monotonic longitudinal RSWA with tonic–phasic dissociation across serial attended video-polysomnography in isolated REM sleep behaviour disorder [PDF]
BackgroundQuantitative REM sleep without atonia (RSWA) metrics are increasingly used to characterize isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) and as candidate biomarkers.

Hybrid Adaptive Segmentation and Morphology-Based Classification of EOG for Automated Detection of Phasic and Tonic REM Sleep [PDF]
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is increasingly understood as a heterogeneous state composed of two neurophysiologically distinct microstates: tonic REM and phasic REM. Phasic REM, defined by brief clusters of saccadic eye movements and transient cortical

Extrasynaptic δ-subunit containing GABAA receptors [PDF]
γ-Aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are GABA gated heteropentameric chloride channels responsible for the adult brain’s primary inhibition.

Reward exploitation and aversion are mediated in part by the locus coeruleus (LC), a brainstem structure significantly involved in learning and memory via the release of norepinephrine. Different LC firing patterns are associated with different functions.

Phasic Neuronal Firing in the Rodent Nucleus of the Solitary Tract ex vivo
Phasic pattern of neuronal activity has been previously described in detail for magnocellular vasopressin neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei.

Temporal Summation in Fibromyalgia Patients: Comparing Phasic and Tonic Paradigms
IntroductionFibromyalgia (FM) is associated with dysfunctional pain modulation mechanisms, including central sensitization. Experimental pain measurements, such as temporal summation (TS), could serve as markers of central sensitization and have been ...

Synaptic Properties and Plasticity Mechanisms of Invertebrate Tonic and Phasic Neurons
Defining neuronal cell types and their associated biophysical and synaptic diversity has become an important goal in neuroscience as a mechanism to create comprehensive brain cell atlases in the post-genomic age.

Phasic firing in vasopressin cells: understanding its functional significance through computational models. [PDF]
Vasopressin neurons, responding to input generated by osmotic pressure, use an intrinsic mechanism to shift from slow irregular firing to a distinct phasic pattern, consisting of long bursts and silences lasting tens of seconds.
