Effects of Agomelatine on Sleep Across Populations: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agomelatine, a melatoninergic antidepressant, is often prescribed to improve sleep disturbance, though meta‐analytic evidence is currently lacking. This systematic review and meta‐analysis assessed its efficacy and tolerability in sleep outcomes compared to placebo.

Transactional Associations Between Bottle to Bed and Infant Sleep Problems Over the First Year

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine associations between putting the infant to bed with a bottle and maternal‐reported infant sleep problems using a 3‐wave cross‐lagged model. Participants included 299 mother‐infant dyads. When infants were 2, 6 and 14 months old, mothers reported their feeding practices using the Infant Feeding Practices

Association Between Perioperative Sleep Disorders and Post‐Operative Delirium in Cardiac Surgeries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Overview of studies included in the systematic review investigating the association between perioperative sleep disorders (PSD) and postoperative delirium (POD) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. ABSTRACT Post‐operative delirium (POD) is an acute deterioration in cognitive function and highly prevalent after cardiac surgery (CS; up to 55 ...

Naturally-occurring sleep choice and time of day effects on p-beauty contest outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes
We explore the behavioral consequences of sleep loss and time-of-day (circadian) effects on a particular type of decision making. Subject sleep is monitored for the week prior to a decision experiment, which is then conducted at 8 a.m. or 8 p.m.

Sleep and Maladaptive Personality Traits: A Twin Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep is essential for human functioning, but little attention has been paid to the interplay between sleep and maladaptive personality traits. We examined genetic and environmental associations between sleep and four maladaptive domains (MDs)—Negative Affectivity, Detachment, Disinhibition, and Psychoticism—within the framework of the DSM‐5 ...

Quick Returns: A Quasi‐Experimental Field Study on the Effects on Sleep, Fatigue and Cognitive Performance

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As sleep restriction has negative effects on performance, ensuring sufficient sleep for shift workers is essential. Quick returns (< 11 h off between shifts) shorten sleep and are associated with increased fatigue and risk of accidents, but there is limited research on other aspects of cognitive performance and work performance. The aim of the

Differential Nap‐To‐Nap Stability of Sleep Spindles, Slow Waves, and their Temporal Coupling: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow waves and sleep spindles characterise non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and support cognitive and plasticity‐related functions. While their stability across nights is well established, less is known about their consistency across daytime naps.

Optimising Sleep Stage Detection Using a Minimal Non‐EEG Physiological Signal Set and Deep Learning

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Automatic sleep stage classification is essential for enabling non‐invasive, at‐home monitoring. However, current methods often rely on electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and ad‐hoc development approaches that limit reproducibility. We present a reproducible engineering framework for a deep learning model based on the U‐Net architecture that ...
