Narcolepsy and rapid eye movement sleep

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Since the first description of narcolepsy at the end of the 19th Century, great progress has been made. The disease is nowadays distinguished as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. In the 1960s, the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep at sleep onset led to improved understanding of core sleep‐related disease symptoms of the disease (excessive ...

The Sleep Opportunity, Need and Ability (SONA) Theory

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘How much sleep does one need?’ is a critical question that has been difficult to answer. The long history of sleep research has culminated in population‐derived normative values of 7 to 9 h of sleep per night to avoid dysfunction. Such a wide range is sufficiently large that one cannot know what is required for any given individual.

Moderate to Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Is a Risk Factor for Severe COVID‐19—A Nationwide Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and positive airway pressure (PAP) treatment on COVID‐19 severity is unclear. In this population‐based, nationwide study using multi‐register data, we aimed to assess if OSA is a risk factor for COVID‐19 severity and how adherence to PAP treatment and clinical characteristics affect the risk.

From leprosy to ground zero: Imagining futures in a world of elimination

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Achieving a target of zero—zero disease, zero disability, and zero discrimination—has become the dominant focus of campaigns to control or eliminate diseases, from HIV/AIDS to malaria to leprosy. Given the historical failure of most eradication programs over the last century, such teleological imaginings of disease‐free futures might seem ...

Diverse hosts, diverse immune systems: Evolutionary variation in bat immunology

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.
Bats are recognized to have distinct immune systems from other vertebrates that may allow them to host virulent pathogens without showing disease. However, these flying mammals are also incredibly diverse, such that bats should not be expected to be immunologically homogenous.
