abstract：:Recent studies have compared default-mode network (DMN) connectivity in different arousal levels to investigate the relationship between consciousness and DMN. The comparison between the DMN in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep with that in non-REM (NREM) sleep is useful for revealing the relationship between arousal lev...
