Before revision:  Unlike its HH counterpart it does not predict spike trains during prolonged constant-current stimulation, in agreement with recent experiments .
After revision:  After the external concentration of calcium ions is reduced, the generation of repetitive rebound action potentials is predicted by our model, in agreement with experiment, when the membrane is stimulated by a brief (0.1 ms) depolarizing current. Unlike the HH model, our model predicts, in agreement with experiment, that prolonged constant-current stimulation, in agreement with recent experiments .
