Article Synopsis
- Central sleep spindles play a significant role in learning and memory in adults, leading researchers to investigate their impact on neurobehavioral performance in children.
- The study analyzed the relationship between local, bilateral, and diffuse sleep spindles and cognitive abilities in 17 healthy children, revealing that bilateral spindles were more common than local spindles.
- Results indicated that both local and bilateral central spindles are linked to cognitive functions, with certain types, like frontopolar spindles, being associated with reduced hyperactivity in children.
