REM sleep burst neurons, PGO waves, and eye movement information.
Abstract
Pontogeniculooccipital (PGO) waves appeared almost simultaneously in both lateral geniculate nuclei (LGB), but in each case on had a larger amplitude and preceded the other by a few milliseconds. The larger, earlier wave is called the primary wave. Primary waves were found to appear with equal frequency in each LGB. During rapid eye movement sleep (REM sleep), LGB primary waves were ipsilateral to the direction of rapid eye movements. During REM sleep a group of cat midbrain neurons, which we call PGO burst cells, fired in stereotyped bursts at fixed latencies before ipsilateral primary waves, but they almost never fired bursts when the primary waves were contralateral. PGO burst neuron discharge also correlated with the direction of rapid eye movements during REM sleep. In wakefulness, PGO burst cells fired single spikes, not bursts, which had some correlation with LGB waves when averaged by computer. The results suggest that PGO burst cells are output elements in the PGO wave-generation system ad that PGO waves convey eye movement information to the sensory visual system in REM sleep. They also may have a role in the production of saccade-related waves in the visual system during wakefulness.

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.
