Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that current technology can ethically measure changes in interstitial space in sleeping humans?

Yes. Current neuroimaging techniques, such as specialized diffusion-weighted MRI, enable non-invasive measurement of microstructural changes and interstitial fluid dynamics in the brains of sleeping humans.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 2 sources for, 0 against · Last checked

The analysis

The retrieved papers document successful non-invasive neuroimaging approaches (such as advanced diffusion MRI and apparent diffusion coefficient measurements) used to study interstitial space and fluid changes in human subjects during sleep, directly supporting the claim.
