Age‐related modifications of NREM sleep EEG: from childhood to middle age
Abstract
This study investigated the modifications in non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) power in 54 subjects, from children to middle‐aged adults. Spectral analyses were performed on 5 h of NREM sleep. A marked decrease of absolute slow‐wave activity (SWA) was observed with increasing age; children had significantly more SWA than adolescents, young and middle‐aged adults. The decline of SWA across the night seems to level off with increasing age, suggesting an age‐related attenuation of homeostatic sleep pressure. Absolute theta power was higher for children compared with the other three groups, and adolescents had more theta power than young and middle‐aged adults. In comparison to young and middle‐aged adults, alpha power was higher for children and adolescents. Children and adolescents had more sigma power than middle‐aged adults. Absolute beta power was higher for children than for the other age groups. Therefore, the major alterations of NREM sleep EEG occurring between childhood and middle age are not restricted to SWA, but encompassed the theta, alpha, sigma and beta frequency bands.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
