Shift or night shift work and dementia risk: a systematic review.

European review for medical and pharmacological sciences, 2021
Dementia is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive decline in multiple cognitive domains. Individual and/or environmental risk factors, i.e., aging, are involved in its pathogenesis. It is possible that shift and night works, affecting circadian rhythms, may contribute to the occurrence/progression of the disease. Therefore, aim of

Boundary‐Dependent Sleep–Wake Dysregulation in Idiopathic Hypersomnia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) presents with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) despite apparently preserved nocturnal sleep, challenging traditional models of hypersomnolence based on sleep loss or fragmentation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that EDS in IH reflects excessive stabilization of the sleep state, consistent with ...
