Abstract
Neurons in the lateral tegmental field (FTL) has been previously reported t o have activity only minimally correlated (< 1% of neurons tested) with the 10-Hz rhythm of the slow wave of the sympathetic nerve discharge. We repor t here that 10% of the neurons recently tested in the FTL could be shown to correlate with the 10-Hz rhythm. The neuron-to-nerve coherence is weaker t han in other medullary areas, but is nonetheless significant. (C) 2000 Else vier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
