Discriminative Sleep Patterns of Alzheimer's Disease via Tensor Factorization [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Sleep change is commonly reported in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and their brain wave studies show decrease in dreaming and non-dreaming stages. Although sleep disturbance is generally considered as a consequence of AD, it might also be a risk factor of AD as new biological evidence shows.

Early warning signals for desynchronization in periodically forced systems [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Conditions such as insomnia, cardiac arrhythmia and jet-lag share a common feature: they are all related to the ability of biological systems to synchronize with the day-night cycle. When organisms lose resilience, this ability of synchronizing can become weaker till they eventually become desynchronized in a state of malfunctioning or sickness.

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Interpretable Analysis of EEG Sleep Stage Scoring [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Sleep studies are important for diagnosing sleep disorders such as insomnia, narcolepsy or sleep apnea. They rely on manual scoring of sleep stages from raw polisomnography signals, which is a tedious visual task requiring the workload of highly trained professionals.

Night‐Time Chronotherapy with Methylprednisolone Prevents an Acute Rejection in Pediatric Patients with Liver Transplantation: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Concept of methylprednisolone chronotherapy to prevent acute rejections. While endogenous cortisol secretion rises in the early morning, the number of lymphocytes in the blood is higher at night, thus exhibiting an antiphase pattern to cortisol secretion. Therefore, compared with the daytime, the infiltration of lymphocytes into immune‐reactive tissues

First‐in‐Human Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Studies of Balinatunfib, a Small Molecule Inhibitor of TNFR1 Signaling in Healthy Participants

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Oral small molecule inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) are emerging as attractive therapeutic agents for the treatment of various autoimmune diseases. Balinatunfib (SAR441566), a novel oral inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) signaling, changes the configuration of the soluble TNFα (sTNFα) trimer and prevents its ...
