Interhemispheric EEG asymmetry in patients with insomnia during nocturnal sleep.
Sleep EEG was recorded and analyzed in patients with neurotic insomnia. It was found that interhemispheric asymmetry in the same individual can vary during sleep from right-hemispheric to left-hemispheric. Interhemispheric EEG asymmetry is closely related to the stage of sleep. The development of left-hemisphere or right-hemisphere asymmetry is mainly determined by activity of the right hemisphere. The development of interhemispheric asymmetry during wakefulness, stages 1 and 2 sleep, and delta sleep is mediated by common mechanisms.
