This study examines the infraslow fluctuation of sigma power during sleep across development, finding it persists with increasing frequency and strength from childhood to young adulthood.

This paper introduces fractal cycles as a new definition of sleep cycles based on fractal neural activity, showing correlations with classical cycles and differences across age groups and depression states.

The paper shows wake EEG oscillation amplitudes and aperiodic offsets correlate with sleep slow waves, reflecting sleep pressure and brain maturation across childhood and adolescence.
