Our provisional conclusion
Our current conclusion is that the reviewed material offers converging indications of a close relationship between consciousness and brain dynamics. Clinical and experimental observations help investigate changes in the level, access and content of experience, while no included theory explains all its aspects.
The reviewed selection does not establish that personal consciousness survives irreversible death. This is not proof of impossibility: it describes what the present methods and data support. Testimony and hypotheses deserve examination without treating interest or conviction as evidence.
Our position remains open to revision. Independent replication, preregistered protocols, better timing measurements during resuscitation and published negative findings would be particularly valuable. New references will not automatically change the conclusion: methods, quality, consistency and their relationship to the wider evidence will matter.
