The Adherence Conundrum of Sleep Restriction Therapy for Insomnia

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While time in bed restriction is a core treatment mechanism of Sleep Restriction Therapy (SRT), empirical research has not yielded a relationship between insomnia improvement and adherence to the prescribed time in bed. We coin this discrepancy the adherence conundrum of SRT.

Slow Wave Activity During Nocturnal Sleep in Hypersomnolence Disorder

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow waves during non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep are associated with the restorative aspects of sleep. Previous research has suggested reduced normalized slow wave activity (SWA), particularly in the first cycle of NREM sleep, as a feature of hypersomnolence disorder (HD); however, the scarcity of existing research highlights the need for

Cardiovascular Responses to Natural and Auditory Evoked Slow Waves Predict Post‐Sleep Cardiac Function

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The importance of sleep as a key component of cardiovascular health has been increasingly recognized. Our previous research demonstrated that auditory‐enhanced slow waves increase cardiac function, but the underlying mechanisms behind these beneficial effects remain uncertain. In this study, we examined the influence of two types of slow waves
