Disruption of neocortical synchronisation during slow-wave sleep in the rotenone model of Parkinson's disease.

Parkinson's disease motor dysfunctions are associated with improperly organised neural oscillatory activity. The presence of such disruption at the early stages of the disease in which altered sleep is one of the main features could be a relevant predictive feature. Based on this, we aimed to investigate the neocortical synchronisation dynamics during slow-wave sleep (SWS) in the rotenone model of Parkinson's disease.
