Unless I’m misreading, I think the following two lines contradict each other. Does more adenosine correspond to higher or lower levels of sleep drive?
it seems the chemical correlate of sleep drive is the build-up of adenosine in the basal forebrain and this is used as the brain’s internal measure of how badly one needs sleep.
Adenosine levels are much higher (and sleep drive correspondingly lower) in the evening

It’s a mistake, it should say higher.
