Several studies that used Jouvet's platform-in-the-water technique to deprive rats of REM sleep are reviewed. It is observed that a consistent feature of the design of these studies was to ignore the ratio between the size of the animal and the diameter of the platform when the REM deprivation was manipulated. Some contradictory studies are considered, and it is shown that the discrepant outcomes in the literature could be the result of inattention to that ratio.
对几项使用茹韦的水中平台技术剥夺大鼠快速眼动睡眠的研究进行了综述。据观察，这些研究设计的一个一致特点是，在进行快速眼动睡眠剥夺操作时，忽视了动物大小与平台直径之间的比例。文中考虑了一些相互矛盾的研究，并表明文献中相互矛盾的结果可能是由于对该比例缺乏关注所致。
