Abstract
The tonus of extrinsic laryngeal muscles was studied in sleeping humans by means of electromyograms. A striking decrease in the muscle tonus was observed at the onset of each phase of electroencephalographic light sleep, rapid eye movements, and dreaming.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
