Multiscale entropy (MSE) was used to disclose the mixture between functional integration and segregation of brain circuits across NREM sleep. MSE showed N0>N2 and N1>N2 in Scale 1, accompanied with N2>N1 and N2>N3 in Scale 3. The scale-dependent entropy reflects distinct aspects of information processing in the sleeping brain: brain tends to distribute information distantly during the N2 stage and disintegrate both locally and distantly at the N3 stage.
