A human cortical pO2 rhythm similar to that described in cats was demonstrated. It bears close correlation to behavioral states such as weaking and slow wave sleep. Induced changes in cerebral blood flow, through carotid compression, has been detected as qualitative variations in local oxygen availability, at the oxygen cathode tip.
已证实人类皮层的氧分压节律与猫中所描述的相似。它与诸如觉醒和慢波睡眠等行为状态密切相关。通过颈动脉压迫诱导的脑血流量变化,已被检测为氧阴极尖端局部氧可利用性的定性变化。
