Uncover the latest and most impactful research in REM sleep. Explore pioneering discoveries, insightful ideas and new methods from leading researchers in the field.
Postoperative sleep disturbance (PSD) is common after surgery and is characterized by insomnia, fragmented sleep, altered sleep–wake patterns, and excessive daytime sleepiness. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) modulates sympathetic activity and may...
Objectives This study investigated the impact of daily weather conditions on sleep architecture and assessed whether these effects vary according to the severity of suspected sleep-disordered breathing. Methods We analyzed 236,115 nights of...
Background Sleep disturbances are common during pregnancy and are associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Non-pharmacological interventions, particularly exercise, are increasingly recommended to improve sleep quality. This study aimed...
Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia. We investigated stage- and frequency-specific associations between OSA severity and both conventional spectral measures and...
The effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on reducing inflammatory and metabolic markers plays an important role in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) management, however data remains inconsistent. This systematic review and pre-post...
Purpose Evidence supporting how much sleep the night before a multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) is required to generate valid results is lacking. We evaluated the association between preceding night total sleep time (TST) and next-day MSLT outcomes....
Recognizing and understanding human mental workload while performing a task is extremely important for enhancing cognitive state monitoring, optimizing task design, and facilitating decision-making in complex environments. Electroencephalography...
Background The brainstem locus coeruleus (LC), an early site of tau pathology and a key regulator of arousal and sleep-wake dynamics, has emerged as a potential neurobiological substrate underlying the relationship between sleep-wake disturbances and...
Purpose Review literature on the frequency of sleep disorders and receipt of sleep-related healthcare among individuals with muscular dystrophy. Methods Included: Population–Duchenne/Becker (DBMD), congenital (CMD), facioscapulohumeral (FSHD),...
Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Entwicklung der Schlafforschung und Schlafmedizin im Laufe der 40-jährigen Geschichte der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik (DDR) nachzuzeichnen. Der Datensatz umfasste 312 Veröffentlichungen zu diesem Thema. Dabei...
Resonance breathing (RB) and postural resonance (PR) are rhythmic interventions proposed to engage cardiovascular regulation through respiratory and postural pathways, but their acute autonomic and hemodynamic response profiles have not been...
Background Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most extremely effective treatment for moderate-to-severe OSA. Though, upper airway (UAW) obstruction location identification is a difficult task in order to comprehend the potential...
Background Insomnia is a prevalent global sleep disorder. Digital therapeutics, delivered via online platforms, offer novel intervention options. However, existing systematic reviews largely focus on validating individual digital therapeutics, with...
Purpose of Review Periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS) are linked to sympathetic activation and sleep fragmentation, mechanisms implicated in dysglycemia, but whether PLMS is a risk factor for diabetes mellitus (DM) is unclear. We searched...
Purpose Sleep is a key component of recovery and adaptation in endurance athletes, yet sleep recommendations are often communicated as a fixed nightly target despite substantial fluctuations in training load. This study examined whether 24-h total...
Purpose of Review Adults with intellectual disability (ID) experience a disproportionate burden of sleep disorders with major impacts on physical, neuropsychiatric and behavioural health, yet evidence to guide practice has lagged behind the general...
Purpose Weekday-weekend differences in sleep duration are common, but their associations with testosterone and the specificity of corrected weekend catch-up sleep (CUS) as a sleep-pattern measure remain uncertain. We examined corrected CUS and...
Background Sleep disruption at high altitude, driven by hypobaric hypoxia, is prevalent among occupational cohorts and adversely affects health, safety, and cognitive performance. While oxygen supplementation improves nocturnal hypoxia, it does not...
Purpose The relationship between chronotype preference and subjective sleep perception, objective sleep parameters, rest-activity rhythms (RAR), as well as light exposure rhythms (LER) in insomnia patients remains insufficiently clarified. This study...
Sleep disruption increases with age and is associated with adverse outcomes, yet the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, integrative analyses of human and mouse transcriptomic and proteomic datasets identify proteostasis pathways whose aging...
Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM) advances the science and practice of sleep and circadian health across the lifespan. We publish scientificall...
Journal
Description The journal Sleep and Breathing aims to reflect the state of the art in the international science and practice of sleep medicine. The...
Journal
Sleep and Biological Rhythms is the official journal of the Japanese Society of Sleep Research and the Asian Sleep Research Society. Sleep and...
