Non-REM dreaming in relation to the cyclic alternating pattern an exploratory study [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references.Dreaming is yet to be studied in relation to sleep microstructure. By endeavouring to study mentation in relation to the finer neurophysiological processes underlying the rhythmicity of the sleep cycles, dream science ...

Background: Slow-wave activity (SWA) during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep reflects synaptic potentiation during preceding wakefulness. Epileptic activity may induce increases in state-dependent SWA in human brains, therefore, localization of SWA ...

An Asymmetrical Hypothesis for the NREM-REM Sleep Alternation—What Is the NREM-REM Cycle?
Since the discovery of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep (Aserinsky and Kleitman, 1953), sleep has been described as a succession of cycles of non-REM (NREM) and REM sleep episodes.

CD40 activation induces NREM sleep and modulates genes associated with sleep homeostasis [PDF]
The T-cell derived cytokine CD40 ligand is overexpressed in patients with autoimmune diseases. Through activation of its receptor, CD40 ligand leads to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 1 (TNFR1) dependent impairment of locomotor activity in mice ...

Functional anatomy of non-REM sleep
The state of non-REM sleep (NREM), or slow wave sleep, is associated with a synchronized EEG pattern in which sleep spindles and/or K complexes and high-voltage slow wave activity (SWA) can be recorded over the entire cortical surface. In humans, NREM is

NREM sleep stages specifically alter dynamical integration of large-scale brain networks
Summary: Functional dissociations in the brain observed during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep have been associated with reduced information integration and impaired consciousness that accompany increasing sleep depth. Here, we explored the dynamical

A predictive propensity measure to enter REM sleep
IntroductionDuring sleep periods, most mammals alternate multiple times between rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep and non-REM (NREM) sleep. A common theory proposes that these transitions are governed by an “hourglass-like” homeostatic need to enter REM ...

A new concept of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is proposed, that of multi-component integrative states that define stable and unstable sleep, respectively, NREMS, NREMUS REMS, and REMUS.

Endocannabinoid Signaling Regulates Sleep Stability.
The hypnogenic properties of cannabis have been recognized for centuries, but endogenous cannabinoid (endocannabinoid) regulation of vigilance states is poorly characterized.

Sleep-wake dynamics pre- and post-exposure to chronic social stress
Summary: An analytical approach combining the statistical distributions of the sleep-wake bouts and the Markov transition matrix is used to explain the under-examined association between the microarchitecture of the sleep-wake cycle and susceptibility to
