Seeking for a fingerprint: analysis of point processes in actigraphy recording [PDF]
, 2016 Motor activity of humans displays complex temporal fluctuations which can be characterized by scale-invariant statistics, thus documenting that structure and fluctuations of such kinetics remain similar over a broad range of time scales.

Wrist Actigraphy in Insomnia [PDF]
Sleep, 1992 To assess the use of actigraphy in evaluating insomnia, 36 patients with a serious complaint of insomnia slept 3 nights each in the laboratory, where the usual polysomnograms (PSGs) were obtained as well as actigraphic assessments of their sleep. Patients also wore actigraphs for 7 days at home, were extensively interviewed and filled out psychometric ...

Actigraphy: Analyzing patient movement [PDF]
Heart & Lung, 2011 Actigraphic data during simulated participant movements were evaluated to differentiate among patient behavior states.Arm and leg actigraphic data were collected on 30 volunteers who simulated 3 behavioral states (calm, restless, agitated) for 10 minutes; counts of observed participant movements (head, torso, extremities) were documented.The mean age ...

Circadian rest-activity rhythms predict cognitive function in early Parkinson's disease independently of sleep [PDF]
, 2018 BACKGROUND: Cognitive impairment is a common and debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), and its etiology is likely multifactorial. One candidate mechanism is circadian disruption. Although there is evidence of circadian abnormalities in PD, no
