The minimum heart rate observed during nocturnal ... include sinus bradycardia with ventricular bigeminy at IG 2.7 mmol/L and atrial bigeminy at IG 2.8 mmol/L. We also analyzed our data with ...

This is the first time breathing rhythms during sleep have been linked to these hippocampal brain waves—called slow waves, spindles and ripples—in humans. Scientists knew these waves were ...

Just as a conductor coordinates different instruments in an orchestra to produce a symphony, breathing coordinates hippocampal brain waves to strengthen memory while we sleep, reports a new study.
